Week 9

Wednesday, July 23rd

  • We started to simulate diffusion experiments on a Comsol model. We consider cells will lay on agar for the moment.

We will have a chip with these four different channels 1 to 4 mm long. The model still has to be refined because at the moment it doesn't take into account internal/external concentrations of AHL.

  • Our first mold didn't enable us to peal the PDMS correctly. We have to make it less deep.

  • 5 of 8 regulator plasmids are done. We have to repeat construction of producer plasmids.
  • Parameter estimation for integrases is not working at the moment.
  • We skyped with Paris Bettencourt for human practice collaboration and are participating to their newsletter project.
