Overview - Project
Water is the most precious and fragile resource on Earth. However seas and oceans are polluted by a wide range of compounds stemming from human activities.
Faced with this issue, our team wants to heighten awareness about environmental pollution and particularly its devastating consequences on the aquatic life.
In this line of thinking we are driven to design a bioremediation tool based on the considerable filtration capacity of sponges to decrease the marine pollution and protect aquatic ecosystems.
For the third participation to the iGEM competition, we decided to introduce a new chassis to the competition, which is able to work in depth of oceans through a forceful duo: sponge and bacterium.
Sponge can filtrate up to 20m3 of water/day/kg making it one of the most powerful filtrating system alive.
We were focused on the sponge Spongia Officinalis, which lives in symbiosis with the bacterium: Pseudovibrio denitrificans.
This year, our team objective is to develop a filtrating system which could allow to sense and could even degrade pollutants in the future.
For this project, we chose to work on elements most great classes of marine pollutants belonging to most important classes of pollutants of the marine environment.
Hence, we have chosen to focus on phenols, PCBs, nitrite and heavy metals.
