Project description:The aim of this experiment was to determine if the development of resistance to antibiotics can be driven by the concentration and speciation of Cu. Experimental setup was designed to investigate two hypotheses for which two strains of Gram- bacteria have been selected: - Do TE enhance AR in resistant bacteria? Resistant strain: Bioluminescent Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 (Xen41, Tetracycline resistant) - Do TE induce AR in sensitive bacteria? Sensitive strain: Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 (Wild Type)
Project description:During growth in their ecological niche fungi encounter many (micro)organisms that compete for nutrients and /or have antagonistic activity. However, little is known about responses of fungi upon exposure to other microbes. In this project we want to gain insight in induced responses of C. cinerea towards bacteria through comparison of the transcriptome of vegetative C. cinerea mycelium either grown alone or exposed to the bacterial species Escherichia coli or Bacillus subtilis
Project description:Strain N16961 was incubated with crab shell in artificial seawater media for 24 hours. cDNA from 1 ug RNA was labeled with Cy3 (planktonic bacteria) and Cy5 (crab attached bacteria). A growth condition experiment design type is where some part of the growth condition is changed for the purposes of the experiment, examples of growth conditions changed are media, temperature, humidity, light, nutrients.
