Successfully designed project to test water solubility and bioactivity of thiabendazole fungicide by using beta cyclodextrin grafted onto CNC. Analyzed 40 beta cyclodextrin samples in UV-visibility spectrophotometer, creating UV-vis graphs in MS Excel and analyzing data for patterns. Found best performing samples of CNC-CD by calculating grafting ratios for 8 samples of CNC-CD and finding the highest grafting ratio values. Created and presented presentation of project and summary of results to… Show more Successfully designed project to test water solubility and bioactivity of thiabendazole fungicide by using beta cyclodextrin grafted onto CNC.

Found best performing samples of CNC-CD by calculating grafting ratios for 8 samples of CNC-CD and finding the highest grafting ratio values. Created and presented presentation of project and summary of results to professor and received feedback on improving method of phenolphthalein inclusion to further improve grafting ratio. Researched 30+ research papers on Cellulose Nanocrystals (CNCs), emulsions, Cyclodextrins, and their uses and summarized content in the form of organized notes. Show less

Tested wheat seed yield and quality for multiple companies across Canada to provide key agricultural data for future harvests. Utilized ARM (Agriculture Research Management) software and Microsoft excel to analyze effect of fungicides on yield, test weight and disease rating of wheat seed trials. Determined moisture and protein content of a variety of wheat seeds using NIR machine in order to find optimum wheat varieties. Identified the fungicide which featured the greatest yield, highest mass… Show more Tested wheat seed yield and quality for multiple companies across Canada to provide key agricultural data for future harvests.

Independently conducted laboratory experiments on the structure of cyanuric acid-metal (CM) crystals and the effect of different metals on CM to improve fuel cell catalysts. Performed ionic conductivity testing on the crystal samples and collected digital data. Reviewed the findings of 3 crystallography research papers to improve method of carrying out experiments. Provided concise weekly data reports to effectively monitor results and progress of experiments.
