Attributions

We could not have come this far without the aid of others. Thank you to everyone who believed in our project, and shared your knowledge and time with us.

Inspiration

Our project was inspired by the works of iGEM Peking 2015. We decided to improve on this, exchanging the split reporter enzyme with beta-lactamase. When cleaving the substrate nitrocefine, it produces a change in colour visible to the naked eye.
Our decision to apply this to detecting vulvovaginal Candida albicans stemmed from the public lack of knowledge concerning the subject, and increasing antimycotic resistance.

Instructors

Without whom this project would not have been possible

DIRK LINKE
Primary Instructor, course leader, and head of the Linke Group

KIRSTEN B. HARALDSEN
Advisor and project support. Helped us with outreach and human practises.

ATHANASIOS SARAGLIADIS
Instructor, provided us with invaluable help and advice during our labwork. We are forever grateful for your help.

Lab work

Thank you for your aid in the lab, and for your help with matters both practical and theoretical.

Marcella O. Rydmark
Assisted us with difficult techniques, and protein purification

Ragnhild Eskeland
Provided us with expert feedback on CRISPR and guide RNA

Sandra Lopez-Aviles
Provided us with the yeast cells necessary for a proof-of-concept

National Reference Laboratory for Medical Mycology
Many thanks to Cecilie T. Andersen and Lonny M. Kløvfjell for giving us a tour of the laboratory, and general advice concerning yeasts

Johannes Landskron
Provided us with access to a flowcytometer, and helped us set it up for the Interlab study

Beata Nadratowska-Wesolowska
Provided us with expert feedback on CRISPR and guide RNA

Bård Enger Mathiesen

Miscellaneous

w3schools
w3schools.com is a free resource for tutorials and a reference guide for web development. We wrote our wiki by ourselves, and this free resource helped us a lot.

Skeleton
Skeleton is an open-source boilerplate written by Dave Gamache. It has helped us maintain the typography and scaling of elements on our website. With only ~400 lines of code, it's light weight makes it perfect for smaller projects like this. You can find more information at getskeleton.com

THANK YOU!
