Diffused HSL molecules are identified via [https://2014.igem.org/Team:ETH_Zurich/expresults#Quorum quorum sensing]. This [https://2014.igem.org/Team:ETH_Zurich/modeling/qs integration] from a continuous variable, the concentration of HSL, to a discrete variable,the activation of a promoter, is prone to errors due to leakiness and cross-talk between HSL molecules, regulatory proteins and promoters (we characterized it for [http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_R0062 Lux promoter (BBa_R0062)], [http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_R0079 Las promoter (BBa_R0079)] and [http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_R0071 Rhl promoter (BBa_R071)]). To limit the risk of error propagation throughout the rows, we used a [http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1541000 riboregulating system].

The HSL produced diffuses then through the channels to the rows below. The speed of diffusion of each HSL determines coordination on the chip. You can find out more information about diffusion on our modeling page, our experimental results page and our chip page.
