Ramona: Bilder werden noch ersetzt; Text wartet auf Kommentare!
Nicole: Hab ich es richtig verstanden, dass hier nur eure Highlights and Ergebnissen dargestellt werden sollen (mit verlinkung zu den anderen Ergebnissen)? Was haltet ihr von einer kurzen Einleitung... In the last months we (aimed to) developed a diagnostic tool which enables [...] We succeded to detect anti-tetanus antibodies in human serum, develop/generate our own cell-free mix...
mehr Formulierungen wie: we demonstrated..., we (successfully) tested, we achieved...
In den text eine bessere Reihenfolge rein bringen. Es wird vom blut gesprochen, dann Expression in E.coli und dann wieder Blut.

Detection of anti-Tetanus antibodies in human blood serum

Video 1: Detection of anti-tetanus antibodies in human serum.

We specifically detected anti-Tetanus antibodies in human blood serum. To test the DiaCHIP under real-life conditions, we analyzed the blood serum of a vaccinated person for the presence of anti-Tetanus antibodies. We compared blood samples before and after vaccination and could directly detect its effect. To capture the antibodies, the corresponding antigen was expressed in E. coli, purified by His-tag affinity purification and spotted on a specific Ni-NTA surface.

Detailed description
hier noch rein bringen, dass ihr euren eigenen cell-free mix hergestellt habt und mit diesem auch GFP expremieren könnt und es im array erfolgreich nachweisen könnt

Detection of anti-GFP antibodies in rabbit serum using cell-free expressed GFP

Figure 1: Binding of anti-GFP antibodies to cell-free expressed GFP.

To show that cell-free expressed proteins can be immobilized on the protein surface while maintaining their antibody binding properties, the expression mix was spotted on a specific Ni-NTA surface after GFP expression. Cell-free expressed GFP was spotted on a specific Ni-NTA slide and flushed with serum of a rabbit immunized against GFP. The lowest spot consisting of cell-free expressed GFP shows a significant signal compared to the negative control (middle spot).

Detailed description

Building our very own, low-cost DiaCHIP measuring device.

Figure 2: Functional, but low-cost variant of the measuring device.

The measuring device we used in collaboration with the AG Roth (ZBSA) to detect antibody binding events is a really expensive machine, but the physics which it is based on is rather simple. Our self-built device consistent of not much more than two lenses and a camera (A) reliably detected the binding of anti-GFP to GFP (B). To enable future iGEM teams to profit from this label-free detection method as we did, a cost-efficient and easy to rebuild variant of the device was developed (figure 2A).
