Baseline Chemical and Heat Test


What we did:

-Tested wt and mtrB strains of Shewie with adding IPTG, Tet, and heating to 40C


Results:

-Current production was very low for all chambers

-Less than 3 microAmps even for wt Shewie which is nearly a hundred-fold lower than what we normally found

-Chambers were not anaerobic

-Need to redo this test
