The Solution
Our project is a biological approach to solving an environmental problem; the removal of cadmium and sulfate from wastewater. Our aim is to increase cadmium and sulfate uptake in our chassis, ''E.coli''. Our system involves chelating cadmium intra-cellularly through over-expressing cysteine-rich phytochelatins. Find out more about our project here.
