  • Built three more fuel cell chambers
  • Ran three wildtype MFC's

Mfc 3xwt.png Conclusion:

  • Perhaps cells have died.
  • Produced negligible amounts of current.
  • There was some leaking in the 3rd MFC
  • There was some color change: possibly alive but inactive or "asleep"?

  • made 250 mL of OGM
  • prepare for experiment
  • finished building 3 MFC's

Wednesday: July 16, 2008

  • Set up LabVIEW
  • Experiment:
    • wt, 2 mtrB chambers
    • added lactate overnight
