GFP (J04430) fluoreses with FITC
Overlap between FITC and YGFP blocks prevents differentiation between YFP and GFP.  RFP can be differentiated between YFP/GFP very well.
 
YFP/GFP fades ~3 hours after being taken out of the incubator after overnight incubation.  RFP was still strong at +3h.

New Reporters

Due to issues with T7 promoter, the following biobricks were rehydrated 6/14

Constitutive (IPTG-inducable?) GFP

Constitutive (IPTG?) RFP

Constitutive GFP using TetR promoter. No experience; might not work.

Constitutive (IPTG?) YFP. Apparently gives uneven YFP expression

Transformed with 2ul of DNA on 15ul bacteria; twice for each plasmid. Took 3 ul from each incubation of and added into two two mixed SOC cultures. Let's see what happens when LacI GFP, RFP, YFP are co-cultured.

One of each LacI plasmid type, GFP, RFP, YFP, LacI were cultured overnight on plates treated with 10mM IPTG.

Microscope Notes

Overlap between FITC and YGFP blocks prevents differentiation between YFP and GFP. RFP can be differentiated between YFP/GFP very well.

YFP/GFP fades ~3 hours after being taken out of the incubator after overnight incubation. RFP was still strong at +3h.
