| − | <p>Because the modified <i>E.coli</i> may be harmful when released to the environment, our experiments are done in the BSL2 laboratory. All of our team members receive several training courses and pass exams offered by Laboratory Management System before entering the laboratory. Each member must wear the lab coat, trousers, gloves, surgical masks, and shoes when carrying out experiments. Before and after the experiments, we have to use ethanol to clean the gloves and the experiment table. Everybody strictly follow the experimental procedure and never carry anything out of the lab.</p> | + | <p> Because the modified <i>E.coli</i> may be harmful when released to the environment, our experiments are done in the BSL2 laboratory.

However, peptides may degrades after long time sterilization. To find out the best fitted time for sterilization, we boiled our bacteriocins for 0, 15, 30, and 45 minutes, and put them on LB Agar plate and cultured it at 37℃ for 16 hours.</p> | + | <p> Bacteriocins are usually heat stable, we use high-temperature sterilization to double make sure our peptide solution does not contain any living <i>E. coli</i>.
