Description
This is a biology research poster on how soaking sweet corn kernels in a 1% chitosan solution impacts the plant’s stress response gene, peroxidase (POX). Although the our experiment had some issues with the RNA extraction and we got a band size that was larger than expected, we talked about steps for the process in the future and we think a dose-response study is the best followup once everything is fully certified.
