Intro

The basic proposal for juicyprint is the growth of cellulose by bacteria under the control of light. The 660nm light that the Cph1 protein is sensitive to inhibits the growth. Therefore we designed a system to generate the production of a pellicle sheet in the shape of a projected template.

Aim

The aim is to provide a basic proof of concept to test how the light sensitive bacteria respond to the stimulus.

Results

We were unable to fully test the system with the target system. Therefore we simulated the process with just a liquid target.

660nm light is a bright red colour;
