@MySensate I ordered a Sensate on Sunday and have still not received confirmation that it’s shipped? Website said I should receive that within 2 days? Can you help please?

[Colorifix @colorifix]

Nothing more satisfying than a sample book! 📖🌈 Creative Resident @RuthMLloyd is compiling technical records of the screen printing process she has been developing with our bacterial pigment technology

@south_railway I saw the message about train distractions. It said to travel earlier than needed but I have a late booked ticket? Is my ticket valid for an earlier service because of the disruption?

[Ruth Lloyd Design. @RuthMLloyd]

@CityCorpHeath hi is the aim that the bathing ponds stay pre booked tickets only even once all restrictions have lifted or will they return to the previous system?

#sciencetwitter does anyone in London have a sonicator I can either A. Borrow, or B. Come and use? Please?
I am trying to extract the undecylprodigionsin pigment out of some beautiful streptomyces coelicolour

[Ruth Lloyd Design. @RuthMLloyd]

So in more challenging news -my lab may not be opening tomorrow after all due to I.T issue. I have an MA to finish up in 6 weeks after 3.5 months of not being able to do work 😂 anyone have a lab space they can let me come spend some time in?

[Ruth Lloyd Design. @RuthMLloyd]

#sciencetwitter does anyone have a recipe for lysis buffer to work on extracting GFP coloured proteins from E.coli K12 they might share please? Base is likely Triton-x-100 with some additional perhaps?

[Ruth Lloyd Design. @RuthMLloyd]

#sciencetwitter I’m a masters student growing bacterial pigments for use as sustainable dye systems - is there anyone willing to share some #Lysozyme with me please? Or could recommend a reasonable supplier?
I can see it’s used in the making of wine but unsure if I can use that?

[Ruth Lloyd Design. @RuthMLloyd]

It’s official, I’m going to be growing red pigment with streptomyces in the next few weeks! Too excited!

[Ruth Lloyd Design. @RuthMLloyd]

Anyone know of any BS2 containment labs in London that are friendly and open to collaboration with designers on colour based research?

@KingsCollegeLon I’m a postgrad student working on the dyeing potential of microbial pigments, can you point in the direction of anyone at Kings who might be good to talk to about collaboration please?

[Ruth Lloyd Design. @RuthMLloyd]

@Mostlymicrobia Hi @Crubag and @kate_duncan that sounds amazing, I would love to have a chat! I’m following you both now so DM me or email [email protected]
Thanks @Mostlymicrobia

[Dr Morgan Feeney @Mostlymicrobia]

Any London-based microbiologists working on #PigmentedBacteria? I've been contacted by a textile artist wanting to investigate more sustainable alternatives to fabric dyes - let me know if you'd be able to chat with her about access to strains or pigments!

[Ruth Lloyd Design. @RuthMLloyd]

@ATCC_LGC I’m a textiles print masters student at the Royal College of Art, studying the application of bacterial pigments for dyeing textiles. Do you have someone I could talk to about supplies for this project please? #sustainabledesign

[Ruth Lloyd Design. @RuthMLloyd]

@ImperialBioeng I’m a RCA masters student looking to collaborate with a bioengineering student on a project looking at the possibilities of bioengineered microbial pigments for dyeing. Can you advise me how to get in touch with any interested students please?

[Ruth Lloyd Design. @RuthMLloyd]

@Ocado thank you so much for everything you are doing! Just wondered when more delivery slots would be available? Even for a couple of weeks time

[Ruth Lloyd Design. @RuthMLloyd]

@DavidWiddick @Mostlymicrobia Hey @DavidWiddick I've been emailing @Mostlymicrobia about a project I am starting (looking at the printable application of bacterial colour) and she suggested getting in contact with you, your work with Emily looks amazing. Would love to chat if you have the time? Ruth

@Delta flight from JFK to Atlanta delayed which means I'm delayed by 24 hours. I was told to keep my food receipts, where do I send?
