Lab Notes: Battery

This page documents the wet lab experiments relating to our microbial fuel cell devices. Be sure to look at our library of frequently used protocols that are referenced from this page with any amendments.

22/06/16

    We met with Dr Ed Milner and Dr Paniz Izadi from the School of Engineering and Geosciences in their lab to discuss their work on microbial fuel cells using cultures from water treatment plants. Given the safety limits of our project we decided to use E. coli, and began researching potential genetic devices we could make to improve the efficiency of standard cells. They provided us with the standard MFC kit from the University of Reading, which we could use in our initial experiments.

27/06/16

    We ran our first experiment with the Reading Fuel Cell kit using yeast as the organism responsible for electron transport.

05/10/16

    We ran our first experiment with the Reading Fuel Cell kit using yeast as the organism responsible for electron transport.
