| − | The purple pigment is produced by two of them:
| |
| − | - Chromobacterium violaceum
| |
| − | - Janthinobacterium lividum
| |
| − | | |
| − | Both produce Violacein. Do mind that C. violaceum is a level 2 organism, opportunistic pathogen. So. I guess the best option is the Janthinobacterium lividum.

| − | Good job ! I'll check the incubator it's strange that it doesn't wnat to increase the temperature to 37°C. However it gives the time to your bugs to grow slowly and to you to control them =) Note, the guy owning the incubator besore was using it to do smoked salmon... Dafuk... Anyways I see your sterility is good and you have little to no contagion which is great ! Keep up the good work =)

| − | Abstract
| |
| − | | |
| − | Aims: To analyse the environmental stimuli modulating violacein and biofilm
| |
| − | | |
| − | production in Janthinobacterium lividum.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Methods and Results: Violacein and biofilm production by J. lividum
| |
| − | | |
| − | DSM1522T was assayed in different growth conditions. Our data suggest that
| |
| − | | |
| − | violacein and biofilm production is controlled by the carbon source, being
| |
| − | | |
| − | inhibited by glucose and enhanced by glycerol. J. lividum produced violacein
| |
| − | | |
| − | also in the presence of different sub-inhibitory concentrations of ampicillin. As
| |
| − | | |
| − | opposite, the production of N-acylhomoserine lactone(s), quorum sensing
| |
| − | | |
| − | regulators was shown to be positively regulated by glucose. Moreover, violaceinproducing
| |
| − | | |
| − | cultures of J. lividum showed higher CFU counts than violaceinnonproducing
| |
| − | | |
| − | ones.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | Extraction:
| |
| − | Violacein extraction
| |
| − | J. lividum was grown in 2 ml of LB or LB-U or LB-Y in
| |
| − | 24-well plates. At regular time intervals, bacterial cells
| |
| − | from a single well were harvested by centrifugation
| |
| − | (16 000 g for 20 min), and treated for violacein extraction.
| |
| − | Violacein extraction was carried out according to
| |
| − | previously described methods (Blosser and Gray 2000;
| |
| − | Matz et al. 2004). Briefly, bacterial cells were lysed with
| |
| − | 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate. After 5 min at room temperature,
| |
| − | water-saturated butanol was added (1 : 2 v/v)
| |
| − | and vortexed. After centrifugation (16 000 g for 10 min)
| |
| − | the upper phase, containing violacein, was collected. The
| |
| − | extracted violacein was quantified using a spectrophotometer
| |
| − | (OD585). The extinction coefficient of violacein
| |
| − | (0Æ05601 ml lg)1 cm)1) was used for quantitative calculations
| |
| − | (Mendes et al. 2001).

| + | Violacein extraction |
| − | Time to go hunting!
| + | J. lividum was grown in 2 ml of LB or LB-U or LB-Y in 24-well plates. At regular time intervals, bacterial cells from a single well were harvested by centrifugation (16 000 g for 20 min), and treated for violacein extraction. Violacein extraction was carried out according to previously described methods (Blosser and Gray 2000; Matz et al. 2004). Briefly, bacterial cells were lysed with 10% sodium dodecyl sulfate. After 5 min at room temperature, water-saturated butanol was added (1 : 2 v/v) and vortexed. After centrifugation (16 000 g for 10 min) the upper phase, containing violacein, was collected. The extracted violacein was quantified using a spectrophotometer (OD585). The extinction coefficient of violacein (0Æ05601 ml lg)1 cm)1) was used for quantitative calculations (Mendes et al. 2001). |
| − | Today we had an interesting visit to the Lab, I found 3 nice Senior women close to my desk, they suggested me to try cochenille for the red pigment et.... voilà! It's used for Red Lipsticks and so easy to find it in our daily live, garden and supermarket!

| |
| − | First attempts with Filabot extruder! I've put the natural white pellets on the machine and verted the bio+ink.
| |
| − | I have some problems with the porosity of the plastics, gonna try mabe ask an expert to know how to solve this.
| |
| − | | |
| − | | |
| − | The problem seems to be solved almost, if the pigments are added BEFORE putting them into the extruder nad let them dry for a around 30min at room T°.

| − | We could start printing with our Pr(ink)t as soon as I get to assembly and connect it!
| |

| − | I will try also injecting the living bacteria directly on the plastic and see what happens.

| |
| − | New extraction of violacein is completed in UNIGE. I brougth bacl home 6 ml of beatiful purple ink ;) Gonna set up everything for the plastice coloration and extrution.So, as I experienced before, to much liquid (ethanol, buthanol...) is forming bubles in the extruder when evaporated, trapped in the noozle and released within the warm plastic wire. So, I will try to evaporate it in a petri before extruding it, leaving it open few hours till the buthanol is almost gone.

| − | After Milan exposition, I'm glad to share & post some articles and press quiotes about the project: | |
| − | | |
| − | BLOG-ESPRITDESIGN.COM
| |
| − | They point out the project with the whole video about it, this one posted at the end: "Du love-hôtel pour pigeon à l’extraction de pigments de salamander pour colorer les fils d’imprimante 3D, les propositions témoignent d’un nonconformism revendiqué par l’école."

| | + | Building the FilaBot DIY Kit, an extruder for plastics. 40 hours of intense work. Thank Michael for the moral support and electronic supervision. |
| | + | Put the natural white pellets on the machine and verted the bio+ink. |
| | + | The problem seems to be solved almost, if the pigments are added BEFORE putting them into the extruder let them dry (because of the extraction they already have alcohol so they dry fast) for a around 30min at room T°. |
