Thraxen Posted February 29, 2004 Share Posted February 29, 2004 Thraxen, I'm a microbiology major right now but am going to switch to the Pre-Med focus. Do you do research in lab, teach, or do field work? Sorry about the delayed answer, forgot to check back with this thread. I work at the corporate lab for a large food producer. My position is officially supposed to be mostly field work. Most of our production facilites have small on-site labs for basic aerobic plate count, E. coli, Staphylococcus, and yeast/mold testing. They cut and ship samples to the corporate lab for pathogen and pesticide residue testing. I travel to these labs and audit the protocols (i.e. make sure they doing everything correctly). I am also responsible for traveling to any facility that begins to have problems with elevated microbial counts or positive pathogen results to help them stop the problem... this usally involves trying to locate any harborage where the bacteria are likely living. BUT I have done much less of this in the last year due to a large volume of research projects happening at the corporate lab. Right now I am mostly helping conduct the projects. Most of the projects relate to new anti-microbial treatments that can be used in production facilites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish we could just use the Coulter counter method. Let the machine do all the counting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juniel Posted March 2, 2004 Share Posted March 2, 2004 Slowly...these questions are becoming private... ....or is it just me? there was the 'how old are you?' question, 'where do ya live?' question...and now 'what do you do for a living?' question... oh yeah, 'where are you from?' also counts... soon people will be asking 'what colour underwear are you wearing?' and people will not hesitate to say 'none!' ........... ....or is it just me?
