Bioluminescence Investigations
What
We are investigating life that gives off light!!
already we have dinoflagellates (without flagella!) and Photobacterium phosphorum !
(hoping for some glowing mycelia, but wonder if it is simply phosphorescence there...)
Who is involved?
It all started with 2 students from Nyon, who wanted to do their 'travail de maturité' with some bioluminscent bacterial, to make a mosaic!
- Inès Nerodenkova
- Luca DN
They ordered Vibrio fischeri from a French biotech company in a special kit.
- Siouxsie Wiles - Australian researcher, who recommended Photobacterium phosphorum, as brighter.
- Hackuarium members (Rachel, Luc H)
Recent results in the new BioLab in Ecublens
it isn't V. fischeri, but the recommended Photobacterium phosphorum
- pcr then sequencing results!
What's Next
the challenge is to get their real color in images, and to make them bright... extra salt is seemingly very important! more results to come!
