| − | This year, our team took part in the 2018 InterLab Study, which aims to standardise the fluorescence levels of bacteria transformed with different devices conferring it fluorescence. This is accomplished through the use of a plate reader. The plate reader we used was Synergy H1 Hybrid Multi-Mode Reader (courtesy of SynCTI?), which could read both absorbance and fluorescence.

| − | LUDOX CL-X (45% colloidal silica suspension) was used to convert the Absorbance at 600 nm as obtained from the plate reader into a comparable OD600 measurement as obtained from a spectrophotometer. Here, pathlength correction is especially important to be switched off so as to not provide correction for the volume of sample in the 96-well plate.
