What nutrient stimulants can be added to quicken the degradation of the fungi?]]> 2020-09-24 16:13:33 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776477702 21tasabbagh https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776479325 I think your question is really cool and really unique. Is this feasible in terms of cost and materials that will be needed to execute this type of research? Will your background information tell you that the fungi is not harmful to the health of other organisms?]]> 2020-09-24 16:13:53 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776479325 21luvillanueva https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776483568 Will you look at different types of nutrients as well? Perhaps using a control group o nutrients that those fungi are used to versus a variety of foreign nutrients might be interesting. ]]> 2020-09-24 16:14:46 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776483568 21kavoronkin https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776497316 Your question is super unique, however, I think it might be beneficial to simplify the overall research question a bit. I found that as I was reading it, I got a bit confused/lost towards the middle.

Also, will you be looking at petroleum oil specifically? Or will there be a variety of tests with other pollutants? ]]> 2020-09-24 16:17:32 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776497316 21madriscoll https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776508656 I think in order to make this more manageable with the resources available to you, it would be best to focus either on: studying which species of fungi native to NE Ohio is most effective, OR what nutrient stimulants can speed up the degradation. I think tackling both of them could prove challenging]]> 2020-09-24 16:19:54 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776508656 21resovchen https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776515570 I think your question is very cool, but I am wondering exactly how feasible it would be...I feel as if though this type of set up would require hours of lab work and examination daily in order to gather accurate and reliable information. Do you have the available resources to do this?

How will you test whether or not a fungi is safe for human health without it being an ethical concern? You cannot put someone in harms was during an experiment to find out if it is bad for their health or not ]]> 2020-09-24 16:21:21 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776515570 21jodavidson https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776520047 Your question is very interesting. However, I think that focusing just on native species and their ability to degrade oil and not focus on nutrients that could speed this up. I think that this could allow you to better be able to determine the best fungi species for degrading oil in the limit amount of time we have.]]> 2020-09-24 16:22:18 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776520047 21caroscoe https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776526341 Your topic is really cool. Which nutrients will you be looking at? What materials will you need to measure this? ]]> 2020-09-24 16:23:30 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776526341 21modifranco https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776528257 your topic is very interesting and original. It is definelty a topic that very few to no one else will have. However, do you find this question possible to completley follow through with. All the different seasons in Ohio can cause different growth rates of fungi. Along with how hard it might be to gather a lot of different types of fungi for this question.]]> 2020-09-24 16:23:53 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776528257 21modifranco https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776538131 Just a general comment. This question can definitely be followed through with, but I recommend for sure to have an expert adviser. That can help a ton with the study and equipment.]]> 2020-09-24 16:25:58 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776538131 21alochi https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776590804 I agree with what everyone else has said, it is definitely interesting, but may not be entirely feasible. Maybe if you narrow it down a bit more that could help?]]> 2020-09-24 16:36:41 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/776590804 ibellasugar https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/779837755 Also, maybe eliminating some of the factors can make it more feasible. ]]> 2020-09-25 16:13:56 UTC https://padlet.com/llong_goldberg/uggeqhfkm363l4xy/wish/779837755
