Salt & Solvent Tolerance Resuls & Conclusions

Salt tolerance

We tested the growth of our bbc1 construct (biobrick # K398108) as stated in our characterization page.

The growth rates were determined for the exponential fase (using a trendline). The results are visible in the following chart.

Here one can see that the biobrick is indeed functional at concentrations greater then 0.3 M Sodium Chloride. The general increase in tolerance varies between 10 and 35% depending on the Sodium Chloride concentration.
