From 2007.igem.org

This is my first approach to Siyntetic Biology but its interdisciplinary nature, as well as the many potential applications, amongst others, in the health, material, and energy sectors, make it particularly exciting. My work at the Tigem institute is started this may. At the first I have studied a series of possible projects,their feasibility and effectiveness.My attention soon has been focused on the possibility to transform Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells in sensors able to reveal olive oil acidity.
