In order to assess the feasibility using our Snifferomyces cells as a diagnosis method, a device called "Snifferometer" was built to measure the status of fluorescence.

Scheme of the Device
Test
Eppendorf tubes are used to contain the liquid.
Two filters were tested:
- [http://www.leefilters.com/lighting/colour-details.html#768 LEE Filters 768 Egg yellow].
- [http://www.leefilters.com/lighting/colour-details.html#101 LEE Filters 101 yellow].
Four sets
- Control: M9 medium with E-coli
- Test: M9 medium with E-coli overexpressing TagGFP2
M9 medium is used because it has low autofluorescence.
- reduce background light intensity: right filter
- increase green light intensity
- increase the sensitivity of the circuit
- enlarge the area of fluorescent
