Comparison of the Protein Profiles and Analysis of Response of Polyploid and Diploid Populations of Lumbriculus variegatus to Environmental Toxicants
Name of Award
Faculty Research & Scholarly Activities Grant
Date Awarded
10-2009
Department/School
Biology
Project Description
Kay Tweeten, Professor of Biology, received a $1,200 Faculty Research & Scholarly Activities Grant to compare proteins from L. variegatus populations by gel electrophoresis to determine if there were differences in levels of expression of specific proteins between the diploid and polyploid populations and to compare the response of the diploid and polyploid populations to the environmental toxicants cadmium chloride, fluoranthene, lead, and Bioban BP-10.
