      Research

      • Final Year Research project: Isolation and expression of gene/s responsible for Metallothionein synthesis in Staphylococcus warneri and Staphylococcus epidermidis and the elucidation of bioremediation mechanism; This research was conducted under the supervision of Dr.C.D Wijayarathne. The main focus was to isolate the genes responsible for encoding metallothionein protein from eight different strains of previously isolated and identified bacteria. The amplification of the metalllothionein gene and cloning to the pGEM-T vector were successfully carried out in this study.
