Official Team Profile

We breathe 10,000 to 20,000 liters of air a day, mostly through our noses. The olfactory system comes in contact with a different variety and concentration of odors every day. Certain groups of chemicals that produce odors are potentially harmful and can cause health problems. There are some odor syndromes affecting people social life like Trimethylaminuria also called fish odor syndrome, and also some odors in body are unpleasant and need to be masked with deodorants. In our project, we aim to eliminate the nasty odor by degrading the chemical compunds existing in the media. To do this, we plan to modify E. Coli with chemoreceptors to sense the presence of chemicals and link this sensing pathway to the transcription of the degrading enzymes. After catabolism of chemicals, we also aim to produce some mediators causing fresh perfumes. Thus, we can full a room with perfume just by using bacteria. This would change the belief of bacteria which are blamed for the disgusting smell in the enviroment.
