Project Ideas
The following are project ideas (brainstorming) which have been discussed on DIYbio google group. Research papers or existing products similar to these ideas can be found, with the DIYbio aspect of lowering the cost, open sourcing the design, and allowing latest technology (such as USB or network, for electronics devices) to be added as enhancements.
- Using LEDs as spectrophotometer, colorimeter, etc. Some projects already exist around the web.
- Using USB/networkable microcontrollers for thermocyclers.
- Printing or patterning various substances or microbes with inkjet printers.
- Making Taq
- Imaging system for Electrophoresis Agarose Gels (or Gel Box that includes the imaging system built-in)

3D Printed Gel Boat and Comb Set
To: DIYBio google group From: Cathal <cathalgar...@gmail.com> Date: Sep 17, 10:07 am I've just published my first designs on Shapeways, for a $100 Gel Boat and Comb set. Sit these into a plastic container with some graphite electrodes at either end, and you have a complete gel electrophoresis kit. I intend to make more designs and share them both on this shop and with the open-source community in the near future! http://www.shapeways.com/shops/labsfromfabs The designs are open source, and are available on Thingiverse.com for those with access to a 3D printer.. just be sure and let me know the results please! I'm awaiting my own 3D printer right now so I'm itching to see results. Note: Because of the opaque nature of the printed plastic, UV visualisation will have to be Top-down.
