Cellock Holmes - A Case of Identity

Welcome to the Aachen 2014 iGEM Wiki!


Current techniques for pathogen detection have many disadvantages as they require expensive equipment, trained personnel or labourious routines.

The iGEM team Aachen 2014 developed a novel biosensor system called Cellock Holmes overcoming the drawbacks of these techniques by combining Open Source biology, software and hardware.
