Our research group is composed of 4 Bucknell undergraduates, all of them new to the lab this semester (see “People”)!
We’re getting caught up on primary literature and lab skills and gearing up to extract hormones from yolk using SPE (solid phase extraction; C-18 columns), and quantify yolk steroids using EIA (we’ve had great success with both plasma and SPE yolk sample using Salimetrics Salivary Testosterone kits).
