We adopted a strategy that goes beyond of what was presented before in the competition. We aim to enhance Mer Operon expression, improving previous synthetic genetic circuits and allying them with the construction of a bioreactor for water contaminated by mercury. With our genetic construction we achieved more than 97% of mercury bioremediation in 10 hours and then we made available diverse novel Biobricks for genetic constructions related to bioremediation.

We build the first (real) bioreactor to treat water contaminated by mercury using our chassis carrying synthetic genetic circuits we developed! We had the awesome experience working with fermentation experts and see our system working. We achieved the ultimate proof of concept and it was the first step to have this synbio system working out there in the real world.
