A group of synthetic biology scientists and designers from Cambridge University has come up with a daring project called E.chromi.
It is possible that in the near future synthetic biology could greatly influence our way of life, our environment and health.
E.chromi is a genetically engineered bacterium that has the potential of generating colored pigments.
The invention could have a wide range of applications. For instance, it can help identify hazardous pollutants in water by producing a specific color related to each pollutant.
It would be interesting to note that the person who has come up with the idea to create AIRE is Joco Paulo Lammoglia, an inventor from Brazil.
