2008-11-04 JC+NYMU

Attendees:

  • JC
  • NYMU

Conf call Summary

  • Introductions
  • Capabilities, existing NYMU technology & licensing
  • product goal discussion
  • OWW open source project
  • set next meeting date/time 2008-11-18

2008-11-11 JC+SG

  • Discussion of competitive methods for detection.
    • ELISA
You make a serial dilution and then get a good estimate of your antigen concentration by identifying the dilution at which you can first identify a color change.

2008-11-18 JC+NYMU

Attendees:

  • JC
  • NYMU


Conf call Summary

  • postponed due to travel.

2008-11-25 JC+NYMU

Attendees:

  • JC
  • NYMU


Conf call Summary

  • Introductions
  • NYMU team assignments
  • Discuss NYMU presentation & JC OWW research
File:Melamine Sensor Project 20081125 am11.pptx
    • Custom protein
      • Example, combine light sensing protein in cyanobacteria with melamine receptor for detection
    • Chassis
      • Idea, use ADP1 as it has been proposed before
  • Set next steps:
    • NYMU Want to get current market ELISA kit for evaluation & calibration in lab
    • Need to scope where to get other materials
    • NYMU Need to scope designing enzymes into e.coli
    • JC to investigate creating biobricks from known seqs in research
    • Need to investigate noise issues for detection in sample
    • Need to investigate regulating enzymes
  • Set next meeting date/time 2008-12-04 9AM (TAIPEI time)
