Questions
Debriefing
Modelling
- A modelling lecture and tutorial were presented today.
- It was suggested that more work be done individually on building proficiency in the modelling language, Cell Designer.
- Start modelling the constructs employed in the projects so far - build a database of modelled constructs.
Lab visit
Needed for Lab
Ideally, the following issues need to be finalized, before commencing with experimentation.
- List of equipment required
- List of items to autoclave (due to reduction in availability of this service between 3rd and 13th August)
- List of media recipes involved
Projects
HRP
The following constitute the tasks undertaken today by the HRP team.
- Expansion of protocols for HRP experiments
- Formulation of idea on how to characterize HRP: based upon the well-documented F2620 part in the registry. It was also suggested that alternative means of characterization be explored.
- Investigation of calibration of output (GFP per CFU per second)
In-vivo/In-veso
Biofilm
Issues raised during discussion of this system.
- Although this project sets out to "prove a concept/principle", the credibility of the project would be increased greatly if detection of actual E Coli biofilm could be performed.
- Evidently the biofilm would need to employ an AHL communication mechanism; on which the biofilm detector is founded. In other words, investigate whether this is in fact the case: research/review new/posted literature.
Peer Reviews
The group suggested that a peer review be conducted within the near future. The purpose of which is evidently to critique fellow projects and also review whether initial project specifications have been adhered to. Suggestions are being taken on a possible evaluation method.
Particular issues raised by demonstrators
- Following an enquiry into the possibility of having lunch in the Senior Common Room (SCR), a resolution was achieved, in which lunch vouchers to the value of £4 would be made available dialy to each member of the group. These could then be utilized anywhere on-campus, including the SCR.
