Future Directions

Protocols

Monday (May 2)

After introducing ourselves to each other, we began brainstorming project concepts. Four main ideas surfaced: Using a biofilm to filter out fine particulate matter, developing a biosensor to detect naphthenic acids, developing a method to clump fine particulate matter, and promoting sulphur-reducing bacteria. We split ourselves up into groups to examine the feasibility of each idea.

Tuesday (May 3)

The initial findings of our research were completed and we narrowed our focus towards the biosensor idea. The requirements for developing a biosensor specific to naphthenic acids were discussed, and a list of areas for further research was developed. The group was split into separate teams once again, to determine the extent of prior research in the area.
