We used clinical bacterial species to test the expression of fluorescence in bacteria strains with different antibiotic resistance. These are the bacterial strains that we used. (1) Acicetobacter baumannii ATCC baa-747 (2) Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO 1 (3) Pseudomonas aeruginosa 1009373 (4) Pseudomonas aeruginosa 2000671 (5) Pseudomonas aeruginosa 0000765-1 (6) Pseudomonas aeruginosa 0000963 (7) Pseudomonas aeruginosa 0001596 (8) Pseudomonas aeruginosa 0001819 (9) Acicetobacter baumannii 8070903 (10) Acicetobacter baumannii 0008115 (11) Escherichia coli 0000424 (12) Escherichia coli 0000703

  We use ELISA plate reader to read the fluorescence of these strains. BBa_K575024 were transformed into E. Coli DH5α and cultured overnight. It is then diluted until OD=0.1. Clinical species are also cultured overnight and centrifuged to get the supernatant, which acts as our testing target. We then add BBa_K575024 with the supernatant and react for 4 hours. Then we read the fluorescence intesity of these bacterial strains.
