Stony Brook 2017

Our Inspiration:

iGEM SDU 2016

The students from University of Southern Denmark developed an idea for a bandage with an envelope of biocompatible plastic (poly-β-hydroxybutyrate, PHB) and a pad consisting of silk with incorporated bacteriocins. “Bacto-Aid” integrated many materials to facilitate healing and prevent infections, however our team was particularly interested in SDU’s development of “hybrid bacteriocins”. This technique of linking bacteriocins with a three glycine residue to enhance the efficiency of their killing activity, provided an interesting area of research that ultimately became the basis of our project’s design.

Our Advisors

Dr. Gergen is our faculty supervisor and served as a point of contact with the Department of Undergraduate Biology. He shared his expertise on our project formulation and presentation

Dr. French provided many helpful insights to refine our project and protocols.

Dr. Gabor Balazsi helped us understand the kinetics behind our project.

Dr. Steven Glynn assisted us with his suggestions on cell lysis and protein purification.

Dr. Joshua Rest helped us model our phylogenic tree

Department of Undergraduate Biology

Dr. Marvel O' Neal assisted with interlab and provided us access to a plate reader.

Nancy Black acted as a liaison whenever we needed to carry out a transaction or needed access to funds to buy laboratory supplies.

Mary Bernero is the lab manager and helped us with setup and troubleshooting of equipment.
