1.Test of device
1)Preparation of IPTG solution: add 240mg IPTG powder into 10mL dd H2O. We filtrated the solution to sterilize it and broke it into EP tubes. The concentration is 24mg/mL (100mM/mL). then we stored them in -20℃.
2)To test the four different combination according to the strength of promoters, we made different concentrations of IPTG for the bacteria.

2.Investigating the relationship between the concentration of RFP with that of IPTG
1)Measuring absorbance of RFP
We grew bacteria without device and bacteria with our device in same volume until stationary phase. Taking bacteria without device as background, we measured the absorbance of bacteria with our device (the max absorption peak is 504nm).But absorbance in 504nm is higher than 1,which present a bad linear relation between absorbance and concentraton. RFP has absorption in 450nm,and absorbance is between 0.1 and 1(better linear relation).Occasionally, we find a RFP standard curve under 450nm on the web. it was very lucky compared with our failure in testing our device.
Before the mensuration, we diluted the two groups according to table2. We took the mean of two measures as the useful data.
