Project aim
This project aims to develop a new method, high resolution capillary electrophoresis - single strand conformation polymorphism (CE-SSCP) for the analysis of ribosomal RNA. This will allow researchers to quantify and monitor the diversity of Antarctic microbial communities, an important part of any research that aims to detect and ameliorate the impact of humans on the Antarctic ecosystem.
