Supervisor

Ran GC assays on petro-chemical finished and in-process samples.

Ran residual solvents using GC. Performed detection and

quantitation of products to monitor completion of reaction using

FTIR. Ran a variety of tests using Karl Fisher, LOD, refluxes,

viscosity, cloud point, flash point, etc. Ran potentiometric

assays for sulfates and titrimetric assays on finished products

(amines). Carried some supervision of Lab Techs. Did some

maintenance on an HLPC unit.

Ran assays to verify the acrylic acid content in running water

and in some foods (milk) using HPLC intensively. Involved in a

research study aimed at finding candidates for oncology drugs

using HPLC (Ion Exchange Chromatography, instrument equipped

with a column on which proteins were immobilized). Protein

purification using RP-HPLC. Monosaccharide analysis by GC. Ran

assays for the determination of pesticides and pesticide
