Here we will paste some circuit designs
Enzyme-substrate reactions
We have cloned fluorescent receiver systems as backup for our circuit in case the hydrolase reaction do not work properly.
The enzyme substrate reactions take less than 5 minutes and are visible by eye.
Our minesweeper become better and better so keep on track for updates !
