* London Biohackspace is a community biology lab based at the London Hackspace in Hackney, London.
* We hope JuicyPrint will be possible to construct and operate with only "off-the-shelf" items and our strain of bacteria.
* As members of the DIYbio community we enjoy creating things that could be used or made by someone without a fully equiped lab.
* Certain bits of equipment are homemade solutions. This is our DIY flowhood which cost under £150 (see more at bit.ly/Z4u69z).
* Likewise, we hope JuicyPrint will be possible to construct and operate with only "off-the-shelf" items and our strain of bacteria.
* G. hansenii (Gluconacetobacter hansenii) is able to grow on a wide range of carbon sources such as fruit juice, brewing waste or tea. So once a printer unit is constructed, creating objects from it will require only a computer and a local grocery shop.

'''c-di-GMP:''' known to regulate biofilm formation, motility, and the production of extracellular polysaccharides. c-di-GMP acts as a positive regulator of cellulose synthase in ''G. hansenii'', thus a positive regulator of extracellular cellulose production.
