A sucrose density gradient can help separate cells and subcellular components based on density.
Molecular weight of sucrose: 342.3
Parameter: aqueous sucrose solution as percent weight by weight, as a number from 0 to 60
percent weight by weight =
= (grams of solute) / (total weight of solution) * 100%
density of a sucrose solution at a given percent (weight for weight) =
= (0.000017 * ((percent)^2)) + (0.00375 * (percent)) + 0.9988
refractive index of a sucrose solution at a given percent (weight for weight) =
= (0.000007086 * ((percent)^2)) + (0.001380 * (percent)) + 1.333
