The major got really interested and excited with the idea of the biodegradable insecticidal. Also we talked about iGEM competition and we also told him about our project and he was really pleased with this. The major recognize his ignorance about this subject and got really interested knowing that teenagers like us were concerned to search for solutions to the problems of our entity. What he liked the most was that we took care in spread this knowledge to teenagers so that they could also get interested in this subject that not everyone has the opportunity to know.<br><br><b>Monday May 13th 2013.</b></p>
