For our proof of concepts we decided to use chromoproteins as our visual demonstration of co-culture systems for consolidated bioprocessing. Chromoproteins are obtained from anthozoa and when expressed give out bright colour visible to the naked eye. We wanted to use chromoproteins as a proof of concept that co-culture cells at different ratio can be used to make product with varying compositions. In this case our products is colours of different shades and hues. | For our proof of concepts we decided to use chromoproteins as our visual demonstration of co-culture systems for consolidated bioprocessing.

<p>We also investigate the growth rate of cells expressing different chromoproteins. This is to show that the different metabolic burdens impose by the productions of different proteins can affect the growth rate of the cells. This can lead to instability of the co-culture. | <p>We also investigate the growth rate of cells expressing different chromoproteins.
