− | <p class="description">To make sure the system will work out well, we visited (1)executive departments, (2)legislative departments and lawyers, (3)non-governmental organization, (4)industry, and (5)vendors. Also, we put a lot of effort on education. We visited many schools across every age group, teacher's interdistrict communities, senior high schools,junior high, elementary schools and kindergarten. We produced two game apps which are free on Google Play Store, named <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=air.air.FastATCG&hl">Gene Check</a> and Gene Maker. (<a href="https://2015.igem.org/Team:HSNU-TAIPEI/Practices">See our Human Practices</a>)</p> | + | <p class="description">As we defined three dimension for our Human practice, we quickly list the work for each dimension: |
| + | (1)technology/profession: to understand the technique that we design can be used and successfully applied by the public. We need to collect professional comments from professors, food suppliers, bio-tech industry and the public. |
| + | (2)education/communication: to promote the synthetic biology in iGEM project, and also receive feedbacks and comments from the society. We decided that our human practice part should serve the role of education and communication. Thus, we need to visit schools of different levels and the public. |
| + | (3)social impact: to investigate relate issues in food safety in Taiwan. We should comprehend it from a macro view, not only being upset consumers and complaining about the government. Dr. Tsai believed we should target understanding the policy design because many issues (ethics, social justice, safety, security, culture, budget constraints) have to be considered in policy development. Thus, we decided to investigate related policies, how the government implements the policies, and the effectiveness of the policies. Also she believed that we should approach and examining these issues from different sectors, not only listening to the governmental officers. |

− | <p class="description">We design a product which contains E. coli with the gene fragments to detect toxins. We embed E.coli into microcapsules. We have biological safety system. The embedding of E. coli saves cost and time and has high-efficiency detection mechanisms. Our experiment results indicated that immobilizing E. coli can successfully detect toxins. Besides, our work on biosafety issue is to reduce the chance that the E-coli will leak out and contaminate the environment. We have developed triple biosafety certificated mechanisms that will reduce the risk. | + | <p class="description">We designed a product which contains E. coli with the gene fragments to detect toxins.

For example, 4ppm copper ion can induce the microcapsule glow within five minutes. (<a href="https://2015.igem.org/Team:HSNU-TAIPEI/Design">See our product</a>)</p> |
