Responsibilities

The primary focus of this internship is laboratory work, including:

* Designing, executing, and analyzing small-scale experiments to characterize the biochemical properties and
functionalities of protein sources in emulsion and baking applications.

* Developing and validating new methods involving protein purification and characterization, ultrafiltration,
SDS-PAGE, spectrophotometry, and microscopy.

* Ordering materials and reagents for the laboratory, and maintaining laboratory equipment.

* Maintaining a detailed and organized electronic laboratory notebook, and effectively communicating experimental
results to collaborators both verbally and in written form.

* Research into new plant sources & ingredients, interact and source ingredients from vendors, design experiments,
develop SOP’s, run experiments & data analysis & document research findings.

* This position will also be able to contribute and grow with the team in building and developing our knowledge
base of unique plant based sources in various food applications.
