We would like to thank Prof. Dr. Gregory Gloor (kan in zijn naam volgende hyperlink zetten? dat lukt me niet zo goed: http://www.academicbiography.uwo.ca/profile.php?&n=ggloor ), for providing us with a plasmid (pUC1813ICE) which contains the ice nucleating protein gene (inaZ dit moet in italics). Prof. Dr. Gregory Gloor does research at the University of Western Ontario and is currently examining the vaginal microbiome, since the number and type of bacteria in the vagina, have a profound effect on a woman's health. An article in which he uses the pUC1813ICE with inaZ (italics) can be found here(hyperlink: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/10933828 ). We also want to thank Prof. Dr. Filip Rolland (http://www.kuleuven.be/wieiswie/en/person/00006613 ook weer als naamhyperlink?). He extracted the ice nucleating protein gene from the (in italics) Pseudomonas syringae DC3000 strain (hyperlink in 'dc3000 strain': http://www.pseudomonas-syringae.org/pst_home.html). Unfortunately, we could not use this gene, due to a problem with our primers. Prof. Dr. Filip Rolland is a researcher and professor at the K.U.Leuven and works on the plantmetabolism and the interaction with fungi.
