<p class="content">We implant a modified gene into <span style="font-style:italic;">E. coli</span>, and after drying them up, we put these <span style="font-style:italic;">E. coli</span> into a specialized sticker, and this completes our device for long-term quality monitoring. The sticker monitors the temperature and UV light in the whole delivery process, and will change color if it detects excessive amounts of the above two factors. By simply taking a glance at it, the customer can directly confirm the condition of the merchandise.(see <a href="https://2017.igem.org/Team:TCFSH_Taiwan/Design" style="color:#ff3333;">Design</a> & <a href="https://2017.igem.org/Team:TCFSH_Taiwan/Demonstrate" style="color:#ff3333;">Device</a>)</p> | <p class="content">We implant a modified gene into <span style="font-style:italic;">E. coli</span>, and after drying them up, we put these <span style="font-style:italic;">E. coli</span> into a specialized sticker, and this completes our device for long-term quality monitoring.

− | <p class="content">In normal conditions, the color of the sticker will be light green, which indicates “safe.” Nonetheless, if the products are exposed to sunlight or a temperature higher than 37 degrees Celsius, the color will change gradually into red or blue, which indicates “not safe.” The longer the sticker is exposed to these less than ideal conditions, the darker its color will become. The cause of both colors is the synthesis of chromoprotein. Chromoproteins are very stable, which means that the color can last for a long period of time.</p> | + | <p class="content">In normal conditions, the color of the sticker will be light green, which indicates “safe.” Nonetheless, if the products are exposed to sunlight or a temperature higher than 37 degrees Celsius, the color will change gradually into red or blue, which indicates “not safe.” The longer the sticker is exposed to these less than ideal conditions, the darker its color will become.
