Week 5 Spring 2019: Chemistry and Contamination

So today I we met with Dr. Wang to discuss our FTIR results from two weeks ago. I really need to become more familiar with chemistry because honestly the rest of our project is so chemistry heavy. The FTIR gives us amazing data and I am so excited that we can show quantitative data. The photo above are TSA plates that I streaked last week to test for contamination in our media only controls. Unfortunately our plastics 3 and 5 were contaminated. We are trying to figure out the best way to keep our plastics stored to deter contaminants.
