Overall project
ARSENIC OL'FACTORY DETECTION DEVICE
contamination by heavy metals in drinking water is becoming a huge treat to developing countries. Metals such as; Arsenic, copper, lead, ect. are rising to alarming levels. our IGEM project is directed at detecting low level concentrations of Arsenic in bodies water. what makes our project unique is we will be using sent as our reporter, we have found sent producing genes in the registry for banana and wintergreen. we will first be developing this detection device in E-Coli then optimizing into non-pathogenic strain of yeast. we hope to develop a fast, efficient way of detecting heavy metals in without any outside equipment. also giving our detection device the ability to be stored for long periods of time, without the need for any special storing requirements.
