Poster

Description

The poster is based on the sports drink Powerade (Mountain Berry Blast). We have done the thin layer chromatography on the liquid extract. Moreover, we have done GCMS on the extract and then freeze dried it. Then we proceeded to do extraction and GCMS of freeze dried liquid and then we did analysis of GCMS data. The purpose of this research was to identify how much organic material stayed inside of the sample. This was achieved by various methods such as GCMS, freeze drying, and methyl chloride extraction. From the results received, the data is very similar to the actual data of the Powerade drink. However, the remaining data will be discussed later.

Comments

The faculty mentor for this project was Todd Watson, Chemistry.
