Introduction
As a kickoff for our work in the lab, our team decided to take part in this year’s international InterLab Measurement Study, intending to improve measurement tools and to develop a solid and repeatable measurement protocol, making the comparison of measurements carried out in different labs more straightforward. Since being one of the most utilized markers all over the world, the fluorescent protein GFP (Green Fluorescent Protein) was chosen as a measurement marker.
In order to contribute to the 2018 InterLab Measurement study, the participating teams were advised to measure the OD600 and the fluorescence of 8 different constructs expressed in DH5a E.colis on a plate reader. Additionally, a protocol to calibrate OD600 to colony forming units (CFU) counts, which directly refer to the cell concentration in the culture, was provided.

3.2.1 Transformation of 8 Test Devices
The transformation was carried out according to the iGEM Protocol. The clones were picked and treated as suggested by the cell measurement workflow (Figure 1).
3.2.2 OD600 Measurement
The OD600 of all samples was measured at 0h and after 6h of incubation at 37°C. All samples started with similar ODs of about 0.03 to 0.04. After 6h an increase of the OD was noticeable in all strains. The negative control (LB + Amp) did not show a change of OD within the course of the experiment (Figure 4).
