Brief Description
We are currently thinking about making a cyanide biosensor. This idea was inspired by the 2006 Edinburgh team, which made an arsenic biosensor. A cyanide biosensor could greatly shorten the amount of time it currently takes to perform cyanide tests in water labs. Cyanide is also an important compound to be able to detect because of its toxicity.
