* Transformation results: Transformation of the ampicillin-resistant BioBricks seemed to be successful. However, no bacterial growth was present in the plates and liquid cultures with tetracyclin present. This seems to indicate a problem with the tetracyclin used. | * Transformation results: Transformation of the ampicillin-resistant BioBricks seemed to be successful.
