iGEM Measurement Kit
On this page you will find information on: The iGEM Measurement Kit
Please email the measurement committee at measurement@igem.org with any questions about the kit or how to use it.
Introducing the Measurement Kit
Equipment used for measurement, such as plate readers and flow cytometers, tend to vary between labs, and even identical equipment can be used with different settings. This means that if data collected using these equipment are reported using arbitary units (A.U.), then it is not possible to accurately compare data between labs. The aim of the iGEM Measurement Kit is to provide standards and protocols to convert arbitary units for fluorescent and optical density (OD) measurements into standard units which are comparable between equipment and labs.
Check out the 'What Is Measurement?' page to learn more about why comparable data is important for your research.
