Abstract This paper reports the design of a biosensor for sensitive, low-cost measurement lead in drinking water. The uses genetically-modified strain Escherichia coli , which serves as both signal amplifier and reporter water, measured via colour change. We developed PlomBOX platform to image this change we demonstrate its capability detect concentrations low World Health Organisation upper limit water 10 ppb. Our approach does not require expensive infrastructure or expert operators,...
After mating, the physiology of Drosophila females undergo several important changes, some which are reflected in their rest-activity cycles. To explore hypothesis that mating modifies temporal organization locomotor activity patterns, we recorded fly by a video tracking method. Monitoring patterns under light/dark (LD) cycles indicated mated lose ability to anticipate night-day transition, stark contrast males and virgins. This postmating response is mediated activation sex peptide receptor...
