-
*Colonies of strain 168 removed from plate and added to three separate conical flasks, each with 48ml of '''Medium A''' inside. OD650 readings taken until enough cells were added such that absorbance was between 0.1 and 0.2.
 
-
 
-
*Flasks placed inside a shaking incubator and samples taken every 20mins until growth had leveled off.
 
-
 
-
*Growth curves, as well as t0 (at 170mins) plotted below:

Testing of the spectral properties of filters
 
-
 
-
----
 
-
 
-
*Blue , Green and Red filters were tested in different wavelengths (400 nm - 600 nm) in a spectrophotometer.
 
-
 
-
*Excellent absorbance/emmitance results given by the blue and red filters near 580nm and 490nm respectively. 580nm is the wavelength where intensity of light is to be measured to identify the presence of mOrange. 490nm is the wavelength where maximum light intensity is expected with or without the presence of mOrange.
