[RASMB] 200 nm buffer salts

[Marc S. Lewis]

To all:

I need to do some equilibrium studies on a sulfated polysaccharide at 206
nm.  My question is whether or not 0.5 M NaF, which has good transparency
there, will have an adverse effect on either quartz or sapphire windows in
a run taking several days - alternatively, is there any other neutral salt
that could be used?

Thanks -

Marc Lewis
