kfactors_buffers_data.RdA dataset containing the k-factors (k-factor = A975-A900 at 1cm pathlength) of a range of aqueous buffers with salts and solvents, obtained from figure 5 of a Thermo Scientific application note on 'Microplate Based Pathlength Correction Method for Photometric DNA Quantification Assay' (Lampinen, Raitio, Perälä, Oranen and Harinen, 2012, ANMR_MUGO_0412). The dataset was extracted using WebPlotDigitizer (https://automeris.io/WebPlotDigitizer/), tidied to allow easier handling for programmatic purposes, and a column was added to calculate fold change in k-factors for all buffers compared to water.
kfactors_buffers_data
A data frame with 10 rows and 6 variables:
name of the buffer
concentration of the buffer, units are variable
units of the concentration column, M is molar, pc is percentage ie. w/v (%)
string containing buffer-concentration-units information all in one
kfactor value (A975-A900 at 1cm pathlength)
fold change in kfactor from water
