Experimental Approach

The Interlab Study protocols for transformation and plate reader use that were followed came directly from the iGEM website.

Results

All of the test devices, including the negative and positive control plates with growing colonies were given to us by the University of Colorado Boulder team. We were unable to successfully transform competent E. coli cells with all of the plasmids. After following the protocols to grow the cultures, samples were taken from each test device at hour 0, 2, 4, and 6. Unfortunately, the fluorescence of the colonies were not measured correctly so we were not able to contribute to the interlab study data.
