However, the bacterial cell membrane makes efficient hemoglobin-oxygen contact a challenge. Based on this, our team designed a VHb surface display system to express VHb on the outermost shell of the bacteria to raise the hemoglobin-oxygen contacting efficiency. Consequently，this could help bacteria tolerate the low oxygen environment better. We named this system OxygenMAX system. Basically, our OxygenMAX system can be applied to industrial fermentation to raise the high-cell-density growth of the engineering bacteria in bioreactors. Also, allowing for the better growth ability of the OxygenMAX system carried bacteria, our system can help avoid contamination with miscellaneous bacteria in industrial fermentation. Moreover, our OxygenMAX system can be applied to other low-oxygen engineering bacteria working condition like biosensor in intestinal tract, water or soil.</font></p>

Human Practices

Overview

Our goal is to increase the oxygen carrying capacity of engineered bacteria. We expect to increase the yield of engineered bacteria. If realized, the development of fermentation industry can be promoted. In order to get more information about our project and guide our project, we went to Bluepha to do research and interview. We also hope that by participating in the iGEM competition, we can have an impact on our community and the people around us. So we launched a questionnaire in the name of BJRS, and through the promotion of BJRS public name, to investigate public attitudes and understanding of genetically modified foods. A total of 675 feedbacks were received, ranging from under 12 to over 65, covering a wide range of educational qualifications and jobs. The results show that the public's understanding of GM is still inadequate, and the phenomenon of blind resistance is serious. So we carried out a lecture on Synthetic biology in Beijing Jianhua Experimental School.

Integrated Human Practices

The goal of our project is to increase the oxygen carrying capacity of engineered bacteria. We expect to increase the yield of engineered bacteria. If realized, the development of fermentation industry can be promoted. In order to get more information about our project and guide our project, we went to Bluepha to do research and interview.

Bluepha is a bio fermentation company. Its main products are bio plastics. In the company, we practically experienced biological plastic products, and learned the fermentation tank and fermentation process, also, interviewed the employees. The following is the interview record.
