Manchester iGEM 2016

Collaboration


Chalmers Gothenburg



The work on this page may not represent the final modelling used by Chalmers Gothenburg but it represents the final model that was built by the University of Manchester iGEM team in collaboration with the Chalmers Gothenburg iGEM team at the point the collaboration was concluded, any edits and changes beyond this were solely the work of the Chalmers Gothenburg team. Work that was not completed by our team included finding of parameters for the equations etc the only work completed in collaboration was the actual model itself.

The final model used by Chalmers Gothenburg can be seen here

figure 1

The model consists of two organisms in co-culture, each dependant on one another for an essential substrate, ie without one the other would be unable to survive. The model predicts the concentration of the 2 organisms as well as the acetate which is the main product of the system.
