Introduction

Purpose

Create a synthetic measurement toolkit for the precise quantification of UV radioactive radiation. (toolkit :simple. cheap and highly sensitive)

UV radiation and radioactivity are two natural radiation types we get in contact with every day

UV radiation can:

  • Weaken the immune system of human
  • Increase the risk of skin cancer, cataracts
  • Make a depth damage in gene

Recently, due to artificial chemical substances such as CFC (Freon) continued destroy the ozone layer. UV increasing the threaten to human.

Project

We assembled a complete wintergreen odor biosynthetic system by combining the salicylic acidand wintergreen odor generators .catalyzes the conversion of the cellular metabolite chorismate to methyl salicylate or wintergreen odor.

Outlook

Our ultimate objective is to design a beautiful and practical products, this product has the doll shape, The doll has our designed biological system inside.When this toolkit has been irradiate by sun in long time people can smell a special odor that made by wintergreen odor system.
