Week 6 (03-07/08/2015)
hide
-We received material kindly given by KOLO Instruments -Paulussen Freddy
-Searching hotels in Bordeaux during the symposium.
-Folders and brochures are ordered.
hide
-Write protocol for AHL detection
-Write abstract
hide
-Perform gel electrophoresis to confirm double knock-outs: 2 colonies of ΔTar ΔCheZ and 4 colonies of ΔTar ΔTsr still had ΔTar. This means we have our double mutants! We still need to check ΔTar ΔCheZ to be sure the rest of the operon is ok.
-We performed a motility test to verify the phenotypical change of knocking out CheZ
-Assembly of gBlocks by using the Gibson Assembly Method
-We decided to participate at the iGEM 2015 Measurement Interlab Study. Therefore we transformed E. cloni with the biobricks J23101, I12504, J23106 and J23117.
hide
-Write report about Simbiology
-Extending Hybrid Model to 2D
