- | = | + | ===discussion=== |
+ | |||
+ | We demonstrated that the GFP expression switch is delayed by the ratio of sender to receiver. | ||
+ | The result indicates that the amount of AHL from one bacterium per time is constant and independent of bacteria number density. | ||
+ | This is probaly because the sender has no feedback circuit of AHL production. | ||
+ | Although this strategy can not change the time interval, we can manage the switch timing by changing the ratio of sender to receiver. | ||

+ | *Number 2,3 and 5 fluoresces in 30 min. We could not see time difference of these, it may be resulted from excess amount of sender bacteria. | ||
+ | *Precise experiments controlling the number of sender are necessary for further discussion. | ||
+ | *In comparizon with number 2 (T9002:high copy), there was no change of fluorescence intensity of number 4 (T9002:low copy) in 4 hours. | ||
+ | *It is probably because of circuit working, since the AHL is provided enough for the receiver. | ||

Results
Green region: sender=LuxI, Red circular region: sender=Las I.
LuxI GFP is detected at 4h following mixing while LasI GFP is detected
after 8h, thus successfully demonstrating time-delay depending on the
sender used.

discussion
We demonstrated that the GFP expression switch is delayed by the ratio of sender to receiver. The result indicates that the amount of AHL from one bacterium per time is constant and independent of bacteria number density. This is probaly because the sender has no feedback circuit of AHL production. Although this strategy can not change the time interval, we can manage the switch timing by changing the ratio of sender to receiver.

discussion
- Number 2,3 and 5 fluoresces in 30 min. We could not see time difference of these, it may be resulted from excess amount of sender bacteria.
- Precise experiments controlling the number of sender are necessary for further discussion.
- In comparizon with number 2 (T9002:high copy), there was no change of fluorescence intensity of number 4 (T9002:low copy) in 4 hours.
- It is probably because of circuit working, since the AHL is provided enough for the receiver.

GFP coloration of AiiA Receiver(flower blossom) wasn't observed.
We will try again with different method or in different condition until recognizing that the flower grow up!
