Does Z. Mobilis kill Synechocystis?
As our prelimary test from the ethanol evolution appear to show that Z. mobilis and Synechocystis do not like to be grown together, we decided to make a small side project, to test if Z. mobilis really kills Synechocystis. Therefore we repeated the expirement done in the ethanol evolution project with triplicates.
Triplicates of 14,5 ml BG11 + 0,69 ml EtOH (thus 4%) + 1ml Synchecocystis inoculum + 0,5ml Z.mobilis inoculum are incubated at 30°C in the cyanobacteria growth room. Control is 14,5 ml BG11 + 0,69 ml EtOH (thus 4%) + 1ml Synchecocystis inoculum + 0,5ml BG11.

OD values were measured in triplicates. Results here:File:1st read 2009 07 31.xls

DNA-Extraction from Fil products
DNA-Extraction: Anders and I made further DNA extraction from Hälsofil and Langfil to use them as templates for our PCR for the kivd genes. Protocol is coming soon.
Thanks to Fernando for helping us, handling the slimy fil.
