Cellock Holmes - A Case of Identity

Welcome to the Aachen 2014 iGEM Wiki!

Current methods to detect pathogens on solid surfaces have many disadvantages such as expensive and heavy equipment or long detection times.

The iGEM team Aachen 2014 developed a novel biosensing system called Cellock Holmes that overcomes the drawbacks of current techniques.
