Welcome to "The DNA Architects of South Bend & Mishawaka" iGEM Team Wiki!
Introduction: Our Problem
- P. aeruginosa is a human pathogenic bacteria that is found in water.
- Using the iGem parts containing the Lux system that detects quorum sensing factors, we will build a sensor which detects this pathogen.
Primary Objective:
We will pull the Lux system parts and the chemiluminescence parts and build a device in Agrobacteria because it is nonpathogenic.
Secondary Objective:
We will build the luminescence detector built by Cambridge University in 2010.
Further Considerations
- We would like to ultimately design a device that can be hand held, and can be operated simply to determine water quality.
