Microscopy results of iGEMgfp upon 1% induction by subtilin
Microscopy results of iGEMcherry upon 1% induction by subtilin

To analyse the results of the wet lab transformations of the inserts into B. subtilis, we used two methods: microscopy and flow cytometry.

Microscopy work done on 08.09.08 showed a possible difference in the brightness of the iGEMgfp fluorescent cells (brighter in 10% subtilin-induced cells than in 0% subtilin-induced cells). However, there was little difference in the numbers of cells that fluoresced between the two cultures. There was no difference in either the number of fluorecent cells or their brightness between the 10% subtilin-induced and the 0% subtilin-induced iGEMcherry cells.
