Almost Spring Break! but still some finishing touches have to done..
Now that the WAESO conference is out of the way, our group can now focus on the next step of our project. Our biggest project now is starting the biodegradation process with our different types of microplastics and Pseudomonas species. Before we started any measuring, some preparation had to be done. We must shred more plastics to work with and we decided to incubate a fresh set of Pseudomonas species. After all the preparation is completed then we can start the biodegradation process and we will finally get to measure if the different types of Pseudomonas species can aid in the biodegradation of microplastics in water. This experiment will consist of a lot of variables and patience, but I am hoping, in the end, it will be worth it.

OMG! Congratulations on getting into the Conference! I'm super excited for both of you to attend! If y'all want to practice your presentation in front of anyone, I'll be in the lab on Friday and definitely don't mind lending my ears! You girls rock!
ReplyDeleteI thought you guys did an awesome job relaying the info to me. I'm sure that you'll be amazing. I'm excited to hear about it. When you were talking about it, it sounded like it had the potential to be one of the more fun conferences. Make sure to take good mental notes about the research happening in our area! I wanna hear about that!
