Fieldwork was done numerous times to collect environmental samples for DNA extraction using spin column-based nucleic acid purification methods and DNA quantification using fluorometric analysis. Subsequently, amplification was performed using a polymerase chain reaction methodology, gel electrophoresis, and visualization analysis. Show less

In the College of Arts and Science's Department of Chemistry, under the supervision of Dr. Lee Wilson, PhD, and Ms. Deysi Venegas, MSc, for the Saskatoon Regional Science Fair, I employed numerous methods of water purification through coagulation and flocculation by utilizing flaxseed gum (a natural byproduct of flaxseed, a commonly grown crop in my province of Saskatchewan) instead of chemical flocculants. I utilized jar testing apparatuses and pH adjustment technology to create synthetic… Show more In the College of Arts and Science's Department of Chemistry, under the supervision of Dr. Lee Wilson, PhD, and Ms. Deysi Venegas, MSc, for the Saskatoon Regional Science Fair, I employed numerous methods of water purification through coagulation and flocculation by utilizing flaxseed gum (a natural byproduct of flaxseed, a commonly grown crop in my province of Saskatchewan) instead of chemical flocculants. I utilized jar testing apparatuses and pH adjustment technology to create synthetic turbid water for testing and was able to discover that natural alternatives such as flaxseed gum are highly effective at flocculation. Ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy was employed to monitor turbidity removal. Show less

In the Saskatoon Research and Development Centre, under the supervision of Dr. Tyler Wist, PhD, for the Saskatoon Regional Science Fair and working alongside a research partner, we utilized simulated environments in a laboratory. We measured the effects an agricultural pest commonly found in Western Canada can have on canola plants and attempted numerous prevention methods, such as chemical pesticides and natural intercropping using other commonly found crops in Saskatchewan.
