@barakabageni1
Industrial Chemistry graduate whose cottonseed oil research compared hexane and ethanol extraction and tested oil quality.
What I'm looking for
My final-year research at Mount Kenya University examined cottonseed oil extraction using hexane and ethanol. I compared extraction efficiency and assessed oil quality using standard AOAC methods.
I prepared and standardized reagents, performed titrimetric analysis, and interpreted data for the project. I also presented the findings and defended my methodology before an academic evaluation panel.
During my industrial attachment at Mount Kenya University Laboratories, I prepared solutions, performed titrations, and operated laboratory equipment. I’m seeking to apply my laboratory and analytical skills in quality control, quality assurance, pharmaceutical, environmental, manufacturing, or research-based roles.
