Welcome to the homepage of the 2013 iGEM team of the Eindhoven University of Technology.
Within our project we aim to focus on a relatively new form of MRI: CEST imaging. Within CEST imaging proteins containing hydrogen atoms can be used to create the same quality of images as when heavy metals are used. We are hoping to use bacteria to produce these proteins once they enter the body, allowing the bacteria to be our delivery system and production factory.We will try to create bacteria that can visualize tumors

on a MRI scan, withouth the use of heavy metals.
