Introduction

Our objective was to assemble a system that could respond to different concentrations of a specific contaminant in water.

More specifically, the idea was to produce different amounts of a coloured pigment depending on the concentration of the contaminant present in water.

As mention all over this wiki, we worked with Arsenic knowing that an Ars operon exist in nature and more important, it exists as a biobrick in IGEM.

As it is shown in the figure below, in the presence of arsenite (1000 ppb) a typical transcriptional induction is observed over time. There is a lag of 3 hours in the mRFP produciton after adding arsenite.
