1. LA River Algae: We went to the kayak launch point along the river. This section of the LA River gives the public access to the water's edge. This is also a deeper "cleaner looking" section of the river where we found plenty of algae. This hyrbid urban/wild sample seemed to grow the fastest. This might not be true. We might have just convinced ourselves that it did because we think the LA River is full of toxic waste... This algae strand must be a mutant.

An important aspect of the iGEM competition is the use and creation of standard  biological parts. Each team will make new parts during iGEM and will submit them to the <a href="http://partsregistry.org"> Registry of Standard Biological Parts</a>. The iGEM software provides an easy way to present the parts your team has created. The "groupparts" tag will generate a table with all of the parts that your team adds to your team sandbox.

<strong>Note that if you want to document a part you need to document it on the <a href="http://partsregistry.org Registry"> Registry</a>, not on your team wiki.</strong> Future teams and other users and are much more likely to find parts on the Registry than on your team wiki.

<p>
 
-
Remember that the goal of proper part documentation is to describe and define a part, so that it can be used without a need to refer to the primary literature. Registry users in future years should be able to read your documentation and be able to use the part successfully. Also, you should provide proper references to acknowledge previous authors and to provide for users who wish to know more.

<h3>When should you put parts into the Registry?</h3>
 
-
 
-
<p>
 
-
As soon as possible! We encourage teams to start completing documentation for their parts on the Registry as soon as you have it available. The sooner you put up your parts, the better recall you will have of all details surrounding your parts. Remember you don't need to send us the DNA to create an entry for a part on the Registry. However, you must send us the sample/DNA before the Jamboree. Only parts for which you have sent us samples/DNA are eligible for awards and medal requirements.

urban algae sources

We used natural algae to simulate the use of genetically altered algae. We sourced the algae from the following sites in Los Angeles:




1. LA River Algae: We went to the kayak launch point along the river. This section of the LA River gives the public access to the water's edge. This is also a deeper "cleaner looking" section of the river where we found plenty of algae. This hyrbid urban/wild sample seemed to grow the fastest. This might not be true. We might have just convinced ourselves that it did because we think the LA River is full of toxic waste... This algae strand must be a mutant.



2. Chinatown Algae: Usually a wishing well, this famous urban pond exists right in the middle of Chinatown. It contains lots of coins from wishes and has algae lining the tiled sides. We collected our sample off the sides of the wall. This algae grew the slowest but was also the least amount of algae collected.



3. Huntington Gardens Coy Pond Algae: Right in the middle of The Huntington Botanical Gardens, this healthy pond has lots of coy fish and lily pads. We took the sample from the waters edge, avoiding the hungry coy fish. This sample was very vibrant and green.



4. CalTech Turtle Pond: Located in the middle to the CalTech campus, this collegiate pond is home to a small population of turtles. We collected a sample from the waters edge. The algae grew well and was on the lighter green side in comparison to the other samples taken.
