Solution

The Beer-Lambert Law is dependent on the presence of Aromatic amino acids. This is because the Beer-Lambert Law is used to measure the absorbance of light by a solution, and aromatic amino acids (like tryptophan, tyrosine, and phenylalanine) have conjugated systems that can absorb ultraviolet light. This absorbance can then be used to calculate the concentration of the protein.
