Introduction
Making solutions is important in any area of biotechnology R&D QC Mfg
Accuracy is critical as an incorrect solution can destroy months or years worth of work and could delay a critical drug from being available to the market place

Key Terms
Solute: substances that are dissolved
Solvent: substances in which solutes are dissolved (often times this is water or a buffer)
Concentration: amount per volume
Solution: a homogeneous mixture in which one or more substances are dissolved in another.

Concentration
5 mL
If each star represents 1 mg of NaCl, what is the total amt. of NaCl in the tube?
What is the conc. of NaCl in the tube in mg/mL?
4 mg
4 mg / 5mL = 0.8 mg/mL

Calculations
There are a few equations you need to remember in order to determine the required amount of solute and solvent required.
Take your time with your calculations Remember to cancel units Ask yourself if the answer makes sense Record all calculations and formulas used

Weight per Volume
Simplest way of expressing a concentration
Example: 2mg / mL 2mg is the weight of something in 1 mL
of solvent

Percents
May be expressed as weight per volume which is grams per 100 mL (w/v%)
Example: 20 grams of KCL in 100 mL of solvent is a 20% solution (w/v)

Practice Problem
How would you prepare 500 mL of a 5% (w/v) solution of NaCl? 5% = 5g/100mL 5 = x 100 500mL100x = 2500 x=25grams of NaCl Weigh out 25 grams of NaCl and add it
to a 500 mL volumetric flask. Add approximately 400 mL and mix. Once dissolved, QS to 500 mL. Cap and store.

Percents continued
May be expressed in volume percent which is (v/v):
mL of solute 100 mL of solvent
May be expressed in weight per weight which is (w/w):
grams solute100 grams solvent

Practice Problem
How would you make 500 grams of a 5% solution of NaCl by weight (w/w)?
% strength is 5% w/w, total weight is 500 grams
5 grams x 500 g = 25 grams of NaCl 100 grams
500 grams total weight – 25 grams NaCl = 475 grams of solvent needed
Weigh out 25 grams of NaCl and add it to 475 grams of water.

Molarity
Most common solution calculation used Definition: molarity (M) is equal to the
number of moles of solute that are dissolved per Liter of solvent.
In order to calculate molarity, you need to know moles.
Definition: moles are the molecular weight or formula weight of a particular chemical.
FW or MW can be found on the chemical bottle or by adding up atomic weights of each atom in that molecule. For example: what is the MW of H20
2x1 + 16 = 18

Practice Calculations
What is the MW for Sulfuric Acid? H2SO4
2 x 1.00 = 2.00 1 x 32.06= 32.06 4 x 16 = 64.00
98.06
A 1M solution of sulfuric acid contains 98.06 g of sulfuric acid in 1 L of total solution Mole is an expression of amount Molarity is an expression of concentration

Key unit conversions
Millimolar (mM) A millimole is 1/1000 of a mole
Micromolar (µM) A µmole is 1/1,000,000 of a mole

moles per liter 121.1 grams per 1L or 1000 mL = moles
How much Tris are you going to weight out?

Practice Problem continued
Start with what you know 1M = 121.1 grams/1L To make 100 mL of 0.1M solution you
would add how much Tris buffer? Formula= FW x molarity x volume (L) =
g needed121.1 x 0.1 x 0.1L = 1.211 grams TrisWeight out 1.211 grams of Tris and add it
to 80 mL of water, mix and QS to 100 mL of 0.1M Tris soln.

Practice Problem
How much solute is required to make 400 mL of 0.8 M CaCl2
First what is the FW of CaCl2?
40.08 + (35.45x2) = 110.98 110.98 x 0.8 x 0.4L = 35.51 grams CaCl2
required Weigh out 35.51 grams CaCl2 and add it
to approximately 300 mL of water. Mix and then QS to 400 mL using a graduated cylinder.

Preparing dilute solutions from concentrated solutions
Formula: C1xV1 = C2xV2 C1: concentration of stock solution V1: volume of stock solution required C2: concentration you want your dilute
solution to be V2: how much of the dilute solution is
required

Serial Dilutions or Stock Solutions Formula
C1 V1 = C2 V2 Example: Prepare 100 mL of 0.15M KCL
from 10 M KCL stock solution(0.15M)(100mL) = (10M)(x mL)15 = 10xX=1.5 mL
You would add 1.5 mL of the 10M KCL solution to 98.5 mL of water for a total volume of 100 mL and a final concentration of 0.15M

Serial Dilutions
In this type of dilution, an aliquot is taken from a stock tube and placed in the first tube. A volume from the second tube is then transferred to the 3rd tube.
