Towards the right standards: the intersection of open science, responsible research and innovation, and standards
The introduction of standards in research and development leading to new products or innovative processes can be thought of as a particularly technical approach to
Standardization and social ordering: a change of perspective
In Synthetic Biology, standardization can be viewed as a form of social coordination and ordering. Furthermore, in this social context, standards depend upon social ordering
When biology became engineering: adopting standards for living systems
Synthetic Biology, born in the early 2000s, aims to take biotechnology one step further by introducing, into the biological realm, conceptual frameworks from a range
Robust estimation of bacterial cell count from optical density
Optical density (OD) is widely used to estimate the density of cells in liquid culture, but cannot be compared between instruments without a standardized calibration
How to quantify a genetic firewall? A polarity‐based metric for genetic code engineering
Genetic code engineering aims to produce organisms that translate genetic information in a different way from that prescribed by the standard genetic code, which can
Concomitant prediction of environmental fate and toxicity of chemical compounds
The environmental fate of many functional molecules that are produced on a large scale as precursors or as additives to specialty goods (plastics, fibers, construction
