''P. aeruginosa'' secrets an increasing number of 3-oxo-C{{sub|12}} homoserine lactones (HSLs) while multiplying. These HSLs induce the generation of a fluorescent signal in our sensor cells, which is described in more detail in the [https://2014.igem.org/Team:Aachen/Project/FRET_Reporter REACh Construct] section. |
- | The chips can be illuminated with blue light at any time, whereby ''WatsOn'' takes a picture of the chip. The software ''Measurarty'' then analyzes any fluorescent signal. Depending on the intensity of the signal and the size of the spot, ''Cellock Holmes'' can '''calculate concentration and distribution of ''P. aeruginosa'' ''' on the sampled surface. | + | The chips can be illuminated with blue light at any time, whereby ''WatsOn'' takes a picture of the chip.
