What We Learned

The Background

The Results

We saw differences in the expression with inducers.

Background Information

Lessons

  • Defining the quantities you want to analyse can be difficult - e.g. gene expression.

  • Analysing images can be hard and time consuming itself - Subtracting background and segmentation.

  • Given more time we could do more repeat experiments, analyse more cells, inducers separated.
  • E. Coli contained two plasmids

  • Expression of each plasmid was regulated by an inducer - IPTG or Arabinose.

  • One plasmid contained CFP and the other YFP.

The Question

How does the gene expression of the E-Coli change with differing concentrations of each regulator - IPTG and arabinose?

The Experiment

The Approach

  • We incubated the cultures at the various concentrations for 2 hours.

  • Collect a sample of E.Coli from each sample to view under an epifluorescence microscope.
