Revision as of 15:53, 17 September 2015
Week 1
-
21 June 2015
Go fund me page for the Leicester iGEM team was first created as such: Leicester iGEM Go fund me
-
22nd June 2015
09:00-18:00
Start of Labs
Making of agar plates with chloramphenicol, ready to used the next day to streak bacteria
-
23rd June 2015
09:00-18:00
Start of Measurement Study
-Suspension of parts required for each device required in the measurement study. The parts (Promoter and GFP) were then transformed into DH5(alpha) bacteria. This is then placed on agar plates made the day before.
-
24th June 2015
09:00-18:00
Measurement Study
Bacteria produced from the streaks from the previous day are then restreaked again
-
25 June 2015
09:00-18:00
Measurement Study
The restreaks are taken and placed into liquid culture
Week 2
-
29th June 2015
09:00-18:00
Measurement Study
Mini prep of the liquid cultures were made and then nano drops were done
-
30th June 2015
1% agarose gels were made to ensure that the products we wanted were present in solution
Week 3
Due to our project supervisor being away we decided that we concentrated on ensuring that our wiki was started and that we knew what we were doing for Week 4.
Week 4
-
7th July 2015
Human Practises
Have created our synthetic biology survey: Leicester iGEM survey
-
10th July 2015
Measurement Study
Use of fluorescence imaging to see the green fluorescence produced from each device. Repeats of each device were produced and placed onto a 96 well plate. First set of rows consist of 200ul of each repeat and next set has 10x dilution.Controls were placed on the bottom row of blank, positive and negative control. Measurements done at about 560nm.
Nano drops were then taken of repeats which consisted of the highest amount of fluorescence. Fluorescence measured using Omega FLUOstar
Week 5
-
21st July 2015
Human Practises
Our team T shirts arrived
-
22nd July 2015
Measurement Study
Device 3 experiments were done to ensure that the parts we want are in a given construct, we did this by producing gels and had done some minipreps
-
23rd July 2015
09:00-18:00
Measurement Study
Liquid cultures produced
-
24th July 2015
09:00-18:00
Sponsored Walk
Done a sponsored walk to raise some money for travel and accommodation at the Giant Jamboree in Boston. Walked from Market Harborough to Leicester in the lovely rain :)
Week 6
-
27th July 2015
9:00-18:00
Discussion with Professor Ketley about out project in respect to colonisation, etc.
Look into our wiki and the co
-
28th July 2015
09:00-18:00
Meeting about funding and trip to Boston. Measurement study aspects done and mini preps of each device.
-
29th July 2015
09:00-18:00
Measurement Study
Nano drops to find out concentration of DNA and find out if the right stuff is present
-
30th July 2015
09:00-18:00
Measurement Study
Production of 60 repeats for device 3, these were placed on gel and producing plates
-
31st July 2015
09:00-18:00
Measurement Study
Liquid cultures produced and Device 3 re-digested
Entered for Jamboree
Week 7
-
3rd August 2015
Measurement Study
Biological and technical repeats placed into liquid cultures from plates of device 3
-
4th August 2015
09:00-11:00
Measurement Study
Centrifuged and resuspended devices in TGE buffer.
-
4th August 2015
11:00-18:00
iGEM project
Taking parts out required for kill switch, which are then transformed into competent bacteria and streaked out onto plates.
-
