Abstract
BPAF is a chemical compound that has been used to produce plastic since BPA has been more strictly regulated. The purpose of this research is to develop the techniques for examining the effects of BPAF in guppies (Poecilia reticulata). The techniques developed include isolating DNA and RNA and determining the sex of guppies in their embryonic phase.
