Main Focus
I am a technical assistant in the department of Biogeochemical Processes.
I am responsible for organizing and maintaining lab equipment. In the research group Plant Allocation I develop and optimize standard lab methods, in particular for sugar and starch chemistry in plant and tree organs and tissues. In collaboration with Dr. Hilman, we adapt and test these methods also for stable isotope and radio carbon measurements in plant samples.
Ask me about:
Preparation and processing of soil and plant samples
Organization and handling of shared technical
equipment
Rules for use for labeled samples and the LaIsoLab (A3.024)
Basic methods of wet chemistry
Lab safety,
operation instructions and risk assessment
And so much more
