Applications of BBa_J100099

We pipetted 200 microliters of one solution containing E coli cells from a small colony and the activators, one with cells from a small colony and no activators, one containing cells from a large colony and the activators, and one containing cells from a large colony and no activators. We also did a positive control with E coli cells containing a known promoter that causes red florescence (J04450) and a negative control with cells containing a the transcriptional terminator that does not cause red fluorescence (J100091). We tested both fluorescence of our samples using a fluorometer and the light absorbance using a spectrophotometer. We measured the fluorescence and absorbance of five samples of each solution, including a control solution that just contained the growth medium. We averaged the values for each solution and subtracted the average fluorescence/absorbance of the control. We then divided the average fluorescence by the average absorbance for each solution. These values are displayed on the accompanying graph.
