Together we did some experiments concerning food spoilage and explored the diversity of micro-organisms, but we did more. High school students Meintje, Froukje and Iris reported what we did more...

Results of experiments
Every highschool student brought their own piece of food. We analyzed to food by doing a TAMC count (hygiene test) and an E. coli test. Furthermore, we looked at all kinds of different micro-organisms and isolated some different bacteria from milk products. The results where pretty surprising...

BRONZE
Team registration done
Judging form completed
Beautiful Team Wiki finished
We present our poster and project at iGEM Jamboree in Amsterdam at Saturday 6 October 2012
Our Biobricks
SILVER (in addition to bronze medal requirements)
Proof that our BioBrick works!
Characterization of our BioBrick
GOLD (in addition to silver and bronze medal requirements, any one or more of the following)
We improved the function of an existing BioBrick
We helped iGEM LMU Munich by characterizing their parts
We explored the topic of safety for GMOs that would be used near food
We raised public awareness about food waste in developed countries
We surveyed the broad public about the need for Food Warden product and GMOs safety
