These measurements showed that 1.8 mL is sufficient to measure absorption.</p>

<p>Next, a stock-solution of DBCO-PEG (10 kDa) is made (142.9 &micro;M):</p>

<p>-&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 4.5 mL phosphate buffer</p>

<p>-&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 6.43 mg DBCO-PEG (10 kDa)</p>

<p>The first measurement has been performed to determine the cut-off value of the buffer. &nbsp;Hereafter, the concentration series of DBCO-PEG (10 kDa) are measured. The concentrations were subsequently 142.9, 100, 70, 49, 34.3, 24, 16.8 and 11.8 &mu;M. The measurements were performed with the following settings.</p>

<p>With the obtained absorption spectra, a calibration curve can be made by fitting a line through the values for 306 nm. The slope of this line is the molar extinction coefficient and can be combined with the Beer-Lambert Law to determine the concentration of DBCO in the reaction mixture.</p>
