• Europe's Newest Mountain, Mount Wasted
  • Production of the red pigment by stress induction. MG1655 were grown with LB media and sterile filtrated WCM for 48 hours.
  • Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF)
  • (A) WCM precursor material, this sterilised media made from LB and SRF was used to produce all WCM utilised. (B) Cells containing mCherry pigment grown in SRF (A) over 3 days, then streaked in a qualitative assay to check for growth. (C) mCherry cells were streaked again after 7 days growth in SRF.
  • (A) SRF in PBS (phosphate buffered saline), a buffer. We can see from this experiment whether our bacteria can grow solely on the waste SRF. (B) Cells containing mCherry pigment grown in SRF (A) over 3 days, then streaked in a qualitative assay to check for growth. (C) mCherry cells were streaked again after 6 days growth in SRF.
  • Cultured bacteria performing arts.
