WatsOn

Part of the biosensor system Cellock Holmes are our agar chips. They contain our engineered sensing cells that fluoresce in the presence of the pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa. However, bacteria are small and the fluorescent signal cannot be seen with the naked eye. Thus the central question "What's on the chip?" remains.
To answer this question we present our measurement device WatsOn.

WatsOn fulfills several tasks in our system:

  • incubate the sensing cells and the sampling chip
  • prevent escape of potentially sampled pathogens and our genetically engineered cells
  • illuminate the chip with the right excitation wavelength for GFP or iLOV
  • take photos and timeseries of the chips
  • analyze the fluorescence signal
  • give feedback to the user about the presence or absence of P. aeruginosa

Wiring of our device
Aachen Device 1.jpg Start building your own WatsOn by assembling the base plate, the sides and the interior wall.
350px] [File:Aachen_Device_.3jpg Fix the Peltier heater on the back of the aluminum block and place it in the hole of the interior wall.

Arrange the 4x4 450nm LEDs and the 2x3 480nm LEDs

Aachen Device 7.jpg Assemble the camera holder with the camera and the corresponding filter slide on the lower part. Over the camera you can place the temperatur sensor for measuring the indoor temperature. Finally put the fan on the back of the camera holder.
Aachen Device 8.jpg Connect the electronic components on the outside and the inside according to the wiring diagramm.
Aachen Device 4.jpg Put together the drawer.
Aachen Device 9.jpg Position the front panel and insert the drawer.
Aachen Device 10.jpg Place the temperatur sensor for the aluminium block tempteratur directly on the block and put the back panel in front of it.
Aachen Device 11.jpg Add the display and apply some stickers to enjoy your custom-made WatsOn.
