Testing our devices

We want to test if our newly-constructed devices work, that is if they beam flourescence when inducted with IPTG.

  • In 2 different tubes we add 5ml of LB medium and 2 different colonies of [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I763019 I763019] plasmid.
  • In another tube we add 5ml of LB medium and a colony of PLac-cI-GFP plasmid.
  • After 2 hours we measure the OD value and it is around 0.5.
  • For each original tube we divide the bacteria fluid in two different tubes.
  • We add 1mM IPTG to the solution into one tube.
  • The analyzed fluid without IPTG includes:

-2.5ml of original tube fluid,

-2.5ml of LB medium,

-2.5ul of kanamicin.

  • The analyzed fluid with IPTG includes:

-2.5ml of original tube fluid,

-2.5ml of LB medium,

-2.5ul of kanamicin,

-50ul of 100mM IPTG.

  • We examine a bacteria fluid drop from of each tube with our fluorescence microscope.
  • The bacteria with [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I763019 I763019] plasmid don’t beam fluorescence with and without IPTG;
  • Very few bacteria with PLac-cI-GFP plasmid with and without IPTG beam fluorescence.

In conclusion, we see that bacteria with [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_I763019 I763019] plasmid don't seem to work at all, and bacteria with PLac-cI-GFP plasmid don't seem to work properly.
