Shell Visit

A delegation of the TU Delft iGEM Team in front of the Shell R&D headquaters in Amsterdam
Today we went to Shell for a meeting with Henry van Straten (Manager Global Knowledge Centre Energy, Water, CO2) en Albert Janssen (Global R&D Coordinator Water Handling and Part-time professor Biological Gas and Water Treatment at Wageningen University). After a brief introduction on our project they gave us a lot of information about how Shell handles water throughout there production processes.

Emulsifier

In order to measure the emulsifier, we will need to cultivate the strains in M9 medium. Six flasks with 25 ml were inocculated:

  • Top10 with 206 and Amp
  • Top10 (control)
  • DH5alpha with 206 and Amp
  • DH5alpha (control)
  • K12 with 206 and Amp
  • K12 (control)

The controls were taken from the -80 cell stock.
