WHAT ARE WE DOING? We are University College London's iGEM team. We are using Synthetic Biology to combat Dye Pollution.
AZO-DYES Are the most common synthetic dye and are used everywhere, from food colouring to clothes. You're probably wearing clothes dyed with Azo-Dyes! But, when they get into waste water they're very toxic. Our team is engineering bacteria that degrade these dyes, using enzymes, to make them colourless and less harmful to the environment
