Welcome to the [http://www.ed.ac.uk University of Edinburgh ]
Project description
Our team have designed and modelled an biosensor that can detect detect several different concentrations of arsenic and emit a pH signal in response. The device can detect the WHO guideline level of 10 ppb and the Bangladeshi standard of 50 ppb for arsenic in drinking water. A proof of concept Biobrick construct has shown a pH response to a concentration of arsenic of 5 ppb. See a more detailed project summary [http://2006.igem.org/Edinburgh_summary_page here]
