We discussed the application of our project with the Head of the Department of Biotechnology of Hacettepe University, Prof. Dr. Nilüfer Aksöz. Talks on how the project could be applied in real life and how it could be turned into a product were carried out. The talks were focused on the efficiency of such an application. Abrupt calculations for the scale of effectivity were conducted. Mrs. Aksöz suggested to implant sensors such as turbidostat and chemostat in host tanks to maximize efficiency. We thank her for her assistance and time!
