• Test the feasibility of using hydrophobins (a special class of proteins) as oil dispersants. Apply molecular simulations on LSU’s supercomputer clusters accessing via SSH. Use PBS as online script to submit job queries remotely every day. Output data is managed by SQL and plotted by Xmgrace if necessary. Use statistics software SAS and R to generate regression model and to analyze experimental results. E.g. used a two-tailed chi square test of variance to calculate the variation between hydrophobin molecule diameters against an arbitrarily set hypothesis distribution. Analytical results showed the hypothesis distribution cannot be rejected. • Identify the Tryptone bacterial st...
