To overcome this challenge we created bioart. Bioart  is an easy and fun way to illustrate the result of modifying our bacteria. By using parts from our own <a href="https://2013.igem.org/Team:Uppsala/chromoproteins#l1">chromoprotein collection</a> we made sure that the result is visible to the naked eye and no UV-light is needed. We used them for creating a bioart exhibition at our <a href="https://2013.igem.org/Team:Uppsala/synbioday#refpoint1">SynBioday</a>. It was very effective at getting peoples attention. People were very curious of how we made the coloured bacteria. This gave us a natural way to introduce them to some basic synthetic biology.

<p class="project-text"> Malnutrition is today a major global problem that affects people both in affluent and developing countries. Even if you get the right amount of calories, if these do not contain sufficient amounts of micronutrients, like vitamins and minerals, serious illness and even death can be the result.
 
-
 
-
The goal of our project is to alleviate this problem by applying synthetic biology to <a href="https://2013.igem.org/Team:Uppsala/probiotics">probiotic bacteria</a>. These bacteria are already a part of normal human diet and our goal is to modify them so that they enrich the nutritional content of the food they grow in.<br><br>
 
-
 
-
With our project, we will make the lactobacillus genus the <a href="https://2013.igem.org/Team:Uppsala/chassi"> new probiotic platform </a> for <a href="https://2013.igem.org/Team:Uppsala/metabolic-engineering"> metabolic engineering </a> of nutritional compounds. We will engineer probiotics to produce beta-carotene (provitamin), resveratrol (antioxidant), miraculin (sweetener) and saffron (taste).
 
-
 
-
To exemplify what this combination of probiotics and metabolic engineering can accomplish we hope to use our modified bacteria to create nutritionally enriched yoghurt. We have also put great effort into addressing the <a href="https://2013.igem.org/Team:Uppsala/biosafety-and-ethics"> ethical and safety </a> issues that naturally follow when creating genetically modified food. As a part of this we organised a large event, <a href="https://2013.igem.org/Team:Uppsala/synbioday"> Uppsala SynBioDay </a>, with over 200 participants where these issues were discussed.

BioArt

To explain what happens when a bacteria is genetically modified to the public is often challenging. It is often very abstract and the changes are invisible to the layman. To overcome this challenge we created bioart. Bioart is an easy and fun way to illustrate the result of modifying our bacteria. By using parts from our own chromoprotein collection we made sure that the result is visible to the naked eye and no UV-light is needed. We used them for creating a bioart exhibition at our SynBioday. It was very effective at getting peoples attention. People were very curious of how we made the coloured bacteria. This gave us a natural way to introduce them to some basic synthetic biology.
