Safety questions
At the beginning of our research we wanted to be aware of all the probable hazards concerning our project. This included that we tried to identify safety issues. Therefore we concentrated on pathogenicity of the microorganisms and cell lines of interest, the datasheets of chemicals probably used during the project (e.g. DNA stains) and the engineered devices and systems. Thus, we orientated on the hints of the iGEM 2013 safety page as well as the safety constraints for genetic engineering given by the “Stabsstelle Sicherheit” of the University of Freiburg. At this point we are obliged to Dr. M. Zurbriggen, who gave us safety instructions before starting our investigations.
1.Please describe the chassis organism(s) you will be using for this project. If you will be using more than one chassis organism, provide information on each of them:
| # | Species | Strain no/name | Risk Group | Risk group source link | Disease risk to humans? If so, which disease? |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | E.coli (K12) | TOP10 | 1 | http://apps2.bvl.bund.de/strainwww/protected/main/strain.do?method=detail&theId=49&d-49653-p=null | "Yes. May cause irritation to skin, eyes, and respiratory tract, may affect kidneys. " |

2. Highest Risk Group Listed
[ ]1
[2] Greater than 1
3. List and describe all new or modified coding regions you will be using in your project. (If you use parts from the 2013 iGEM Distribution without modifying them, you do not need to list those parts.)
| Part number. | name | "Where did you get the physical DNA for this part (which lab, synthesis company, etc) " | "What species does this part originally come from? " | "What is the Risk Group of the species? " | "What is the function of this part, in its parent species? " |
