Detect and Destroy: Building FRED and OSCAR
Tailings ponds are large bodies of water containing toxic compounds that accumulate as a byproduct of the oil extraction process in the oil sands of northern Alberta. These toxic and corrosive compounds are a potential environmental and economic concern to Alberta and to other areas. The University of Calgary 2012 iGEM team aims to develop a collection of toxin-sensing and degrading organisms to detect and destroy (bioremediate) the toxins, turning them into useable hydrocarbons.
FRED and OSCAR are the two projects we are working on this year. Take a look at the descriptions below to learn more!
iGEM Style!
Take a look at our music video--sung and produced by our very own members--that's taking the iGEM world by storm!
Synergy
We have lots of new data since Regionals! Click here to see how we brought the three aspects of our project together!
