Group Research Project - Individual Blog Post #2
For our group project, we wanted to see if there are many
different protein contents that found in three different organisms: chicken
(free-range and cage), shrimp and milkfish (wild-caught and farm-raised). In
the beginning of our project, we predicted that the organisms who are free
living (free range and wild-caught) would have more protein contents than the same
species ones that raised in a cage. After running the first gel
electrophoresis, we surprised that our results do not support our prediction.
Therefore, we had some difficulty as discussing if we should run the second gel
or start a new project hypothesis. But we decided to keep going with our
project hypothesis because this is science!!
In our error analysis section, we will discuss about overflowing
sample into another well while loading, which could lead to incorrect results. However,
I knew that we had two empty wells in the gel, so we decided to loaded the
samples in these two wells and voided the others.
