  biology final about The Effect of Maltose Concentration on Sugar Consumption and Protein Content​
• The Effect of pH on Yeast Fermentation Rate and Glucose Concentration
  
  This presentation outlines our scientific experiment on yeast fermentation and glucose concentration over the course of 3 weeks. It includes our data displayed in graphs and interpretation of the results.
• The Effect of pH on Yeast’s Buffer System
  
  This study was performed in order to determine how pH levels effect yeast’s buffer system
• The Effectiveness of Over-The-Counter Medications Against Yeast Infections
  
  This research project was created in order to find which over-the-counter medication would be most effective to inhibit the growth of yeast. This poster shows how we conducted the testing and our results.
• The Effects of Hydroxy Groups on Sortase A Inhibition Rates
  
  Poster presentation on the percent Inhibition of S. Pyogenes sortase A enzyme via chalcone intervention.
