Research Interests

My research interests include several analytical projects, which refers to the process of characterizing and quantifying different types of samples.  Specifically, I focus on techniques using electrochemistry, atomic spectroscopy, and chromatography to measure the amounts of specific analytes in different types of samples.

 

One ongoing project involves the measurement of manganese in clinical and environmental samples. This project uses atomic spectroscopy and cathodic stripping voltammetry along with cloudpoint extraction to analyze complex small volume samples .

 

Another ongoing project is using high performance liquid chromatography with UV detection to measure metabolites produced by worms.  This project is done in collaboration with several members of the biology department.
