From the idea to a crude plan
After finding all members for our team in January 2011 we began thinking about an idea for an iGEM project. We had many different ideas, from carbondioxide eating E. coli to a biosensor for dioxines. But in the beginning of February we noticed an [http://www.spiegel.de/wissenschaft/mensch/0,1518,745019,00.html online article] about the ban of the endocrine disruptor bisphenol A in the European Union for the production of baby bottles. We thought: if it was possible to detect BPA at home using a test that everybody could use, all parents on this world would have one concern less. So we decided to build a BPA biosensor. To ensure an everyday applicability this biosensor should be cell-free, nontoxic and easy to use.
