PCB sensor model

Introduction

After considering the water flux and pollutant motions in our sponge, we investigated the sensing power of our PCB construction.
We first modelled the behaviour of RFP production regarding PCB absorption to determine if our sensing strategy was viable.

Model description

According to our device, RFP production is controlled by BphR1 promoter.
This promoter is induced by the BphR2-PCB complex.
Thus our RFP production will depend on the dynamic of BphR2-PCB complex.
We used a simple description of the RFP production.
