Contents

Random fields of interest produced during the brainstorm sessions

Environment

  1. Uptake, conversion or binding of CO2
  2. Cleanup of contamination (water-repellent)
  3. Biofuels
    • (Ligno) cellulose
    • Hydrogen
    • Rocket fuel
    • Carbon chain production
  4. Cigarette smoke dissolving bacteria
  5. Biological filter
    • Toxins and detoxification
    • Dust/Fine particles

Appliances

  1. Clock
    • Seasons
    • Time
    • Growth cycle
  2. Sound
    • Detection, or react to radio signal/antenna
    • Production (need for very sensitive recorders)
  3. Roll the dice – seven is the lucky number!
  4. Ambilight (look at Philips for inspiration)
  5. Bacteria in motion
    • Ion motor
    • Spinning bacteria
    • Buoyancy
  6. Sensors
    • Pressure
    • Blood sugar level
    • Temperature (TUDelft 2008)
    • Smell (detection of spoilage in foods)
    • TNT, “bermbommen”
    • Anthrax
  7. Biological Lubricant
  8. Hydraulics
    • Take-up of water to increase leverage

Electricity

  1. Electrical discharge
  2. Solar power cells
  3. Magnetic bacteria
    • NMR/MRI Magnetosome
    • Compass
    • Magnetic detection
  4. Electronic circuits (on/off)

Medical

  1. recognition and elimination of cancercells
  2. medicine production
    • Vaccin
  3. tissue regeneration
    • secretion of growthfactors
  4. anthrax system
  5. fat eating bacteria
    • just like fatcells) Net als vetcellen
    • eating plaques

Food

  1. Milkbacteria (GRAS)
    • probiotics
    • Prebiotics
  2. fasten beerbrewing
  3. improvement of smell of bacteria
  4. improvement of taste
  5. to let bacteria make additives (taste, smell and colour)for use in foodindustrie
  6. to let bacteria make additives (vitamines e.d)

Material synthesis

  1. Making fibers/polymers
  2. Multistep synthesis with bacteria
  3. biosynthesis in general
    • making ureum out of simple components
    • Ureum survival
    • Nitrogen binding bacteria
  4. - nitrogen binding plants with tumor inducing factor

Structure

  1. Orbs (spheres)
  2. cells that make lots of vesicles
  3. stable structure made out of bacteria
  4. crowd control
  5. Biofilm, colaboration between different kinds of bacteria (in a controlled way)

Signals/communication

  1. Signal transduction
  2. Communication between cells
  3. Switch to secundair products

New Biobricks

  1. Tumor inducing plasmide
  2. PNA
  3. NICE
  4. Clostridium; butanol production system
  5. Magnetosome

Misc.

  1. Evolution
    • Bacteria that can absorb all DNA and try to use it
    • new life/intelligent design
  2. Ordening of DNA in the cell (index)
  3. Clonebots
  4. Forensic applications
  5. Enlarge biodiversity

Downsizing to five main interest area's

  1. Sensors
  2. Evolution
  3. Growth Timer
  4. Magnetic bacteria
  5. Movement


Down to three

  1. Rainbow bacteria
  2. Growth Timer
  3. Buoyant bacteria (purification, etc.)
