The pilot experiment was conducted in order to create SOPs and to gain insight in transcriptome of cells grown at 70 and 80C

Samples obtained form the central fermentation facility of Sulfosys have been compared using iTRAQ (isobaric tag for relative and absolute quantification). A pilot experiment resulted in creation of SOP and initial data on cells grown at 70 and 80C

In order to get uniform data from all geographically separated partners in a consortium, central fermentation facility has been set-up. Based on empirical data, standard procedures for growing S. solfataricus cells have been developed.

Based on initial cell material, series of SOPs connected with assays of enzymes involved in Central Carbon Metabolism of S. solfataricus have been developed.

Pilot experiment concerning metabolome of S. solfataricus was conducted in order to acquire SOPs regarding the technique and gain insight on differences in metabolite concentrations at 70 and 80C
