Academic Sponsors

Several institutions at the Technical University Munich (TUM) funded our team for this years competition. This generous support enabled us to cover the initial team registration, the jamboree fees as well as the travel expenses and most of the material costs for our wet lab.

Chair of Biological Chemistry of Prof. Dr. Skerra

The laboratory in which we performed most of our lab work was located in the Chair for Biological Chemistry which is headed by Prof. Dr. A. Skerra. He provided us with a fully equipped lap and also covered all the consumables that are allways needed but never listed.

Industry Sponsors

Geneious

Biomatters Ltd. created one of the most powerful software-packages availible for the in-silico analysis and manipulation of DNA- and protein-sequences. For the duration of iGEM 2013 competition they provided us with a licence for every team-member.

Eurofins

Eurofins MWG Operon is a leading provider of nucleotide manipulation services. We used the DNA-sequencing and oligonucleotide synthesis services for a very attractive price, which was granted by Dr. M. Pfeiffer.

MathWorks

MathWorks is the leading developer of mathematical computing software. Engineers and scientists worldwide rely on its products to accelerate the pace of discovery, innovation, and development.

IKA

The Ika Group is a German provider for premium laboratory and analysis technology who has gained a leading position in the world market with its innovative magnetic stirrers, mixers, overhead stirrers, shakers, homogenizers, mills, rotary evaporators, calorimeters, laboratory reactors and specially developed software for laboratory and analysis applications. For the homogenization of our moss we used their Ultra Turrax T25, courtesy of IKA including the accessories kit.

New England BioLabs

New England Biolabs is a world leader in the production of restriction endonucleases and DNA modifying enzymes for recombinant DNA technology. They provided us with a set of molecular cloning reagents frequently used in the wet lab amounting to approximately 500 €.

Promega

With a portfolio of more than 2,500 products covering the fields of genomics, protein analysis and expression, cellular analysis, drug discovery and genetic identity, Promega is a global leader in providing innovative solutions and technical support to life scientists in academic, industrial and government settings. Originally, founded in 1978 in Madison, Wisconsin, USA, Promega has branches in 15 countries and more than 50 global distributors serving 100 countries. Promega supports our iGEM Team by providing the Nano-Glo® Luciferase Assay System, the Vac-Man® Laboratory Vacuum Manifold, the PureYield™ Plasmid Miniprep System, the CellTiter-Glo® Luminescent Cell Viability Assay and the Dual-Luciferase® Reporter Assay System.

Qiagen

QIAGEN N.V., a Netherlands holding company, is the leading global provider of Sample & Assay Technologies that are used to transform biological materials into valuable molecular information. QIAGEN markets more than 500 products around the world, selling both consumable kits and automation systems to customers through four customer classes: Molecular Diagnostics (human healthcare), Applied Testing (forensics, veterinary testing and food safety), Pharma (pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies) and Academia (life sciences research).
