Team:Dundee/HumanPractice/Collaboration

A focus of our work over the summer was to utilise our strengths to aid members of the iGEM community. We achieved this by providing help to as many iGEM teams as possible.

This help largely consisted of the provision of bacterial strains which the respective teams required in order to realise their project. To ensure a safe transport of any samples, we had our lab mascot Jessie (Giraffe) bless the containers before they were sent off!

A Dundonian soil sample was sent off to test for antimycin-producing streptomycetes!

An envZ deletion strain of E. coli was sent over for testing purposes, Project Colour by E. coli
