Project Results
We genetially engienered several strains of E. coli in an effort to increase copper resistance and collection. We named each strain after our school's mascot, the Chesapeake Bay Retriever. Retriever 1 (Ret1) has been given the yeast metallothionein gene CUP1. Retriever 2 (Ret2) has been given the same CUP1 gene codon optimized for E. coli. Each strain was tested for cell density and extracellular copper concentration at different initial copper sulfate concentrations for 7 hours.
Here you can describe the results of your project and your future plans.
What should this page contain?
- Clearly and objectively describe the results of your work.
- Future plans for the project
- Considerations for replicating the experiments
Project Achievements
You can also include a list of bullet points (and links) of the successes and failures you have had over your summer. It is a quick reference page for the judges to see what you achieved during your summer.
- A list of linked bullet points of the successful results during your project
- A list of linked bullet points of the unsuccessful results during your project. This is about being scientifically honest. If you worked on an area for a long time with no success, tell us so we know where you put your effort.
Inspiration
See how other teams presented their results.
