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.

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!
