Wet lab
The wet lab team have been focussing on further characterising the PyeaR promoter submitted by Edinburgh last year and on creating our own new Biobricks to engineer E. coli to produce GFP in response to nitrates.
We have also been examining different methods of encapsulating our bacteria to create pellets that could be easily spread by farmers on fields, as well as looking at signal detection and E. coli survival on soil.
For a more in depth view of what we have done so far, click on the Notebook section.
For a complete list of the biobricks used during our project, plus a brief description on their use, click here.
