The motivation to build this part is to characterise the positive feedback loop in the prey cell, and from this be able to characterise (and possibly extend) the exponetial phase of AHL production.

*To satisfy the conditions for Lotka-Volterra, this part has to produce the molecular prey exponentially.

Motivation

  • The Prey Construct must control the molecular activity associated with the Prey in the Lotka-Volterra model.
  • This part has to interface with the Predator-construct.
  • To satisfy the conditions for Lotka-Volterra, this part has to produce the molecular prey exponentially.

Expected Output

To satisfy Lotka-Volterra conditions, our system should produce prey exponentially.

Robustness Device should work for at least 10 cycles of the oscillator to match system level oscillator specifications.
Variability Variability at the device population level (day to day, device to device) should be as low as possible.
