Monday

As a team, we worked on summarizing our project so far and creating presentation slides to summarize our decisions and findings. We also looked for different samples of Eucalyptol to test our output of the system. We found two different grades. Calls will need to be made to determine the difference and choose which type will work the best for our protocols. We also decided to reach out to the Wisconsin Lutheran College iGEM team to see if we could collaborate in some way.


Tuesday

We began to write our protocols for the different parts of our project. We started with how to put the gene blocks together and how to add the prefix and the suffix to the different genes using primers. We also worked on the protocol to see how toxic Eucalyptol will be to the BL21 strain of E.coli. We also looked through existing instruction manuals of kits that our lab has recently ordered to see if there were any protocols we could use.


Wednesday

More protocols were looked at and progress was made on expanding the gene block protocol as well as the Eucalyptol toxicity protocol. We hope to keep working on protocols while our gene blocks are being ordered, made, and shipped. We also scheduled a collaboration meeting with the WLC iGEM team for Thursday. We're all looking forward to it!
