Collaborations

Nottingham

Nottingham University sent our team cells to be tested in our fluorometer and we returned the data to them. The data can be found here.

Water Samples


At the Oxford University SynBioCDT meet-up we asked multiple other UK iGEM teams to send us samples of water so we could measure the concentration of oestrogen and check for dangerous levels, while simultaneously looking for bacteria that already contained the oestrogen degrading pathways seen in Taiwan.





Hello iGEM Teams,
It's been a long, exciting and no doubt exhausting Summer. We have come a long way from the water samples you provided us in the Oxford Meet-up! You might be wondering what we did with them: Initially we tested the oestrogen concentration of the water, and found it to be too low for us to detect. In parallel with this we used the water samples to isolate bacteria we thought might possess the ability to degrade oestrogen. The behaviour of the circuit found in the sample isolated in Taiwan (2017) was not imitated by any bacteria from the water samples collected throughout the United Kingdom. Through these water samples we have expanded our understanding on just how rare these degradation circuits can be for such a common molecule as Oestrogen. We have all come a long way this Summer, and we wouldn't be here without you.
Thank you for helping us,
The Warwick iGEM Team


The team that sent us water samples are: Univeristy of Exeter, University College London, Cardiff University, University of Nottingham, Newcastle University. A big thanks to all these teams for collaborating with us and sending water samples to us.
