Week 10: Chip design, Plasmid assembly, Bead production
Wednesday, July 30th
- We designed two possibilities for the chip: either cells laying on agar or punched cylinders in the agar.
- 8 out of 21 plasmids were positively sequenced. 7 further plasmids are sent for sequencing.
- We will start cross-talk experiments this week. It should help us choose an orthogonal AHL pair among three different quorum sensing systems.
- We have started to learn bead production.
