<p>Mathematical models and computer simulations provide a great way to describe the function and operation of BioBrick Parts and Devices. Synthetic Biology is an engineering discipline, and part of engineering is simulation and modeling to determine the behavior of your design before you build it. Designing and simulating can be iterated many times in a computer before moving to the lab. This award is for teams who build a model of their system and use it to inform system design or simulate expected behavior in conjunction with experiments in the wetlab.</p>

MODEL

The goal of the measurement

Our final product is a genetically modified Methylococcus capsulatus strain, which - hopefully - produce lactate from methane. In order to estimate the possible effectiveness of this bacteria, we decided to use a lactate assay kit. The main idea of our final measurement is a 3D graph which will give us a clue how our product is able to measure the methane concentration effectively.

The calculation of a certain data

The measurement will be carried out with Sigma-Aldrich Colorimetric Lactate Assay Kit (MAK064). During the measurement a calibration curve should be determined and used to obtain the lactate concentration of the medium. Concentration of lactate in a certain medium solution, based on the protocol provided by the distributor company, can be calculated as C=Sa/Sv, where Sa = Amount of lactate acid in unknown sample (nmol) from standard curve; Sv = Sample volume (mL) added into the wells; C = Concentration of lactate acid in sample. The measurement scheme is as follows:
Unfortunately we couldn't manage to obtain the final bacteria, thus the measurement remained a plan for the next week - hopefully we can present the results at the Jamboree.
