A core concept of iGEM is the collaboration in an interdisciplinary student team. Accordingly, students of different age, gender and field of study came together to found our team in Aachen, in order to realize our project with joint forces and enthusiasm for the overall goal. Working closely together, we therefore not only have the chance to learn from each other, but also to excel ourselves. Using our collective creativity and common responsibility, we will create something special in order to make our contribution to synthetic biology.

Organization

where to get:

  • key cards and keys for the lab
  • cooled centifuge
  • space in -80 °C
  • bottles for 70 % ethanol
  • ... (problems of a first year team ^^)

1st

  • gel with M - full -full - REACh1 SOE3.2 - REACH2 SOE3.2 - M
    → 120 V, 30 min
    → cut out the bands

June

3rd

  • transformation of 34 BioBricks

4th

  • preparation of consumables:
    • fresh 50 % glycerol
    • new LB plates with cam and with kanamycin (kan)
    • 60 glas tubes
    • 2 L LB-
    • 100 mL steril glas beads for plating
  • master plates (6 clones per BioBrick) were made

July

1st

  • transformation efficiency kit is broken

→ run an agarose gel with the kit plasmids to check for nuclease activity/ bands

  • inventory of the -80°C freezer was done

2nd

  • overnight cultures (LB) of K731520 and K1319042 for chips were inoculated

August

1st

  • made electrocompetent E.coli rosetta cells.
  • prepared cultures of K1319042 and K131026

2nd

  • tested the OD measurement device and compared it to the spectrophotometer and the plate reader.
  • tested K131026 and K1319042 for fluorescence in the plate reader
  • did a heat shock transformation of I746909 into NEB TOP 10 cells
  • did an electroshock transformation of pET17-Gal3 into E.coli rosetta

October

1st

  • Preparations for sensor-chip production on the following day (2014-10-02) was done accoringly to the sensor chip manufacturing protocol:
    • At 18:30 we prepared over-night cultures from K1319042, B0015 and K131026 by inoculating 250 ml Erlenmeyer flasks each containing 50 ml LB medium . The flasks were incubated for ~12 hours at 37 °C on a shaker.
