                factors: bacterial strain, culture medium, plate reader and so on. Therefore, following a standard protocol

                strictly is one of the guarantee of the repeatable experimental conclusion. This year, we use plate reader

                          we give two possible explanations:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
 +
            <p class="MsoNormal">——<span lang="EN-US">When concentration is too high, light cannot

                          pass through the sample to cause excitation, thus very high concentrations can

                          have very low fluorescence.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

            <p class="MsoNormal">——<span lang="EN-US">The surface portion of sample nearest the

                          light absorbs too much light, little is available for the rest portion of the

                          sample; thus the readings will not be linear, though the measurement will be

                        <p align="left" style="text-indent: 21pt;"> Repeatability is one of the most important part of biological experiment, however, it’s difficult to repeat the measurement data in different labs. As for the measurement of fluorescence, it can be influenced by various factors: bacterial strain, culture medium, plate reader and so on. Therefore, following a standard protocol strictly is one of the guarantee of the repeatable experimental conclusion. This year, we use plate reader rather than flow cytometry in 2016 (<a href="https://2016.igem.org/Team:ShanghaitechChina/InterLab">click here to view</a>). Except for individual settings, we follow the standard protocol by iGEM authority completely, the data is reliable.</br></p>

we give two possible explanations:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
 
 
<p class="MsoNormal">——<span lang="EN-US">When concentration is too high, light cannot
 
pass through the sample to cause excitation, thus very high concentrations can

InterLab

Abstract


Repeatability is one of the most important part of biological experiment, however, it’s difficult to repeat the measurement data in different labs. As for the measurement of fluorescence, it can be influenced by various factors: bacterial strain, culture medium, plate reader and so on. Therefore, following a standard protocol strictly is one of the guarantee of the repeatable experimental conclusion. This year, we use plate reader rather than flow cytometry in 2016 (click here to view). Except for individual settings, we follow the standard protocol by iGEM authority completely, the data is reliable.

Plasmids and the prediction of results

All the eight plasmids are shown below:




From the table above, there are three different constitutive promotors (pcons) and two different ribosome binding sites (RBSs), which form six different combinations as Test Device 1-8.





According to the data of iGEM parts, we know that the strength of these three pcons: J23101J23106 J23117. However, there lacks the reliable data of the strength of pcon (J23151) and the comparison of three RBSs (B0032, B0034, J364100). In conclusion, we predict the result of the Interlab fluorescence measurement:

       Test Device 1 Test Device 2 Test Device 3

Test Device 4 Test Device 5 Test Device 6

All the plasmid sequences (.dna file) can be download from: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bxb6U-RiSYsgQ1pTU0FsTG1SY1k/view?usp=sharing

Method

—— Prepare the fluorescein stock solution

Spin down fluorescein stock tube to make sure pellet is at the bottom of tube.

Prepare 2X fluorescein stock solution (100 µM) by resuspending fluorescein in 1 mL of 1X PBS.

Dilute the 2X fluorescein stock solution with 1X PBS to make a 1X fluorescein solution and resulting concentration of fluorescein stock solution 50 µM.

—— Prepare the serial dilutions of fluorescein

Add 100 µl of PBS into wells A2, B2, C2, D2....A12, B12, C12, D12

Add 200 µl of fluorescein 1X stock solution into A1, B1, C1, D1

Cell measurement

Materials

E.coli K-12 DH5α component cells

LB (Luria Bertani) medium

Chloramphenicol (stock concentration 30 mg/mL dissolved in EtOH - working stock 30 ug/mL)

(This concentration refers to one of our PIs, and it’s the common concentration in my lab.)

(The file can be download here:

https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bxb6U-RiSYsgbjEzU0o4eVNYNWc )

14 mL polypropylene round-bottom tube with aluminum foil cover

(Comparing with 50mL falcon tube, it is much more suitable for incubation, the reason is that its cover isn’t completely closed which can make the oxygen entry freely, so the E.coli can be incubated in an aerobic environment.)



 


Incubator at 37

1.5 mL eppendorf tubes for sample storage

Ice bucket with ice

Pipettes

Method

Day 1: Transform E.coli DH5α with eight kinds of plasmids from 2017 iGEM kit, plate 7.

Day 2: Pick 2 colonies from each of plate and inoculate it on 5 mL LB medium + chloramphenicol in 14mL polypropylene round-bottom tube. Grow the cells overnight for 18 hours at 37°C and 220 rpm.

Day 3: Cell growth, sampling, and assay.

Set the instrument to read OD600 (as OD calibration setting)

Measure OD600 of the overnight cultures

Record data in the notebook

Import data into Excel (Dilution Calculation ) Sheet_1 provided

Dilute the cultures to a target OD600 of 0.02 in 5 mL LB medium + Chloramphenicol 14mL polypropylene round-bottom tube with aluminum foil cover.

(Overmuch cultures in tube leads to anaerobic environment. Therefore, about 1/3 cultures here.)

Incubate the cultures at 37°C and 220 rpm.

Take 500 µL samples of the cultures at 0, 2, 4, and 6 hours of incubation.

Place samples on ice.

At the end of sampling point, measure the samples (OD and Fl measurement).

Record data in the notebook.

Calibration —— fluorescein fluorescence standard curve


Raw data link: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Bxb6U-RiSYsgVGl6RG1aQ1dxVFE



       According to the diagram above, we can notice that when the concentration of fluorescein is high (10μM), the curve doesn’t follow linear relation. As for this problem, we have communicated with other iGEM team, as expected, this is a common question. Referring to some materials, we give two possible explanations:

——When concentration is too high, light cannot pass through the sample to cause excitation, thus very high concentrations can have very low fluorescence.

——The surface portion of sample nearest the light absorbs too much light, little is available for the rest portion of the sample; thus the readings will not be linear, though the measurement will be within the range of a calibration curve.

All the raw data and following tables refer to the wells arrangement of iGEM protocal below:

 

 

 

Results:

 

OD600 —— 0h

OD600 —— 2h

OD600 —— 4h

OD600 —— 6h

 

Fluorescence —— 0h

Fluorescence —— 2h

Fluorescence —— 4h

Fluorescence —— 6h

 

The curve are shown below:

 

OD600 0——6 h

We find that Positive Control and Test Device 1 have a lower OD600 value at 2h and 4h. According to the fluorescence curve, we suppose the more efficient GFP expression (strong promotor and RBS) leads to the less OD600 value. Generally speaking, all the eight kinds of bacteria have the similar growth condition during 0——6 h.

 

Fluorescence 0——6 h

According to the diagram above, we can find distinctly that Positive Control Test Device 1 and Test Device 4 have more efficient GFP expression than the others.

 

Fluorescence/OD600 0——6 h

Generally speaking, the fluorescence/OD600 value means the amount of GFP in each bacterium, thus, this value can represent the GFP expression strength than fluorescence value.

the diagram shows the fluorescence/OD600 results among the six devices:

       Test Device 1 Test Device 2 Test Device 3

Test Device 4 Test Device 5 Test Device 6

The results correspond to the prediction, which means that our data is strict and reliable.
