Revision as of 14:17, 18 July 2006
Week 5: 17th - 21st July
- Cambridge presentation meeting thursday. The output from this will be a good layout for the presentation, which can be improved on friday.
- PCR primers for Urease part ordered
- Website host adress (www.macteria.co.uk) acquired
- Batch of 50 badges made (so we can take them to cambidge)
- "Turtle" characterised (if it arrives)
- Investigate available growth mediums in preparation for further experimentation next week
Feel free to add lab objectives here...
Week 4: 10th - 14th July
- Locate parts in the registry for the modelling of the arsenic biosensor and the 3D structure builder
- Continuing in the lab with putting the arsR and new lacZ genes into biobrick constructs and trying to solve issues with isolating DNA fragments from gels
- Devising new pH experiments to calibrate the sensor
- Badge making, postcard making, locating possible people to send them to
- Organising Cambridge trip
- Initial modelling of the biosensor, finding out all the reactions involved and turning them into equations
- Set up new website
Week 3: 3rd - 7th July
Objectives for the arsenic sensor:
Assess the effects of the:
- 1) bacterial population density on pH
- 2) growth phase on pH change
- 3) concentration of lactose on pH
- 4) time on pH
All effects are to be measured on the pH of the liquid cultures with the Lacz deficient strain of E-coli.
Due to problems in the lab, the above objectives are revised to next week. These problems are illustrated in the [http://2006.igem.org/Lab_Work Lab work section]. Objectives for this week are now to get the first PCR primers made to assemble our first biobricks. Tests for the production of lactic acid on L-agar plates using the LacZ plasmids should be started tomorrow afternoon after the lecture from Dr Elfick.
Objectives for the 3d structure builder:
1) Determine whether to use the Urease or Phosphatase enzyme to precipitate a solid substrate
Week 2: 26th - 30th June
More Brainstorming
Week 1: 19th - 23rd June
