This last week was very data heavy.  We decided to run four samples instead of two. Not only that but we also started reducing the amount of current we were applying to our cultures. We noticed that when we cut it in half after a minute all the biofilm was removed. So we cut that in half and we noticed that after about five minutes all the biofilm was removed. This is important because the less electricity that’s required the cheaper it is to use this method of cleaning membranes. My mentor is being Assigned to a different research project and as a result I am taking over this current project for my remaining time. This is awesome and scary at the same time since we are now sharing our measurement device with another group. Our cultures are required to stay in one place and not be moved at all and that’s going to be very hard when we have another group that wants to use the device that we store them on.
