A plethora of PLFA data arrived on Friday, which means for most of today I'll be analyzing the data and prepping it for my next collaborative manuscript. Probably not much blogging today unless the data analysis breezes by.
(It's a ...)Micro World (... after all) (formerly known as Bio-Fuel!),is a blog dedicated to discussing pretty much whatever I feel like. When I delve into scientific matters it will primarily be discussing microbiology (agricultural, bioenergy, and environmental focus) and astronomy. Otherwise, I'll probably ramble on about sports.
Who is this joker?
Thomas Joseph
Professionally I am a bug hunter (aka microbiologist) and a gene jockey (aka molecular biologist). I started my career as a med tech, but now I'm a research scientist who studies environmental microbiology. When I'm not answering scientific questions about the roles that microbes play on climate change and/or water and soil quality, I'm an amateur astronomer and play racquetball. I'm also a sports nut, though my liking of both the NY Metropolitans (baseball) and NY Jets (football) tests my devotion to these sports on a continual basis. Fortunately, I'm also an OU alumnus (PhD, Microbiology) and we usually have a pretty good football team. BoomerSooner!

have fun with the PLFA's! did they already match up the peaks and let you know which FA each one is, or do you have to do that yourself?
I thought I had gotten away from PLFA's but am now working on a project with them again. At least the collaborator is doing the chemistry now though.
No, I believe they sent me the raw data along with the standards and I'll need to do it all myself.
Am I in for a world of hurt?
I hate Agilent's ChemSoft software. I swear, was this piece of poop written in the 80s?
