For my project, I plan to send up samples of Dunaliella salina algae whose produced triglycerides can be used to manufacture biofuels. I plan to test the effects of the UV radiation, low temperatures, and zero pressure (primarily the UV radiation) on the triglyceride production. I will be contacting/meeting with an algae expert at the U of I to help me work out some of the logistics of working with algae and finalize the procedures/cost of project.
