The discovery that bacteria are able to communicate with each other changed our general perception of many single, simple organisms inhabiting our world. Instead of language, bacteria use signalling molecules which are released into the environment. As well as releasing the signalling molecules, bacteria are also able to measure the number(concentration) of the molecules within a population. Nowadays we use the term ’Quorum Sensing’(QS) to describe the phenomenon whereby the accumulation of signalling molecules enable a single cell to sense the number of bacteria(cell density). In the natural environment, there are many different bacteria living together which use various classes of signalling molecules. As they employ different languages they cannot necessarily talk to all other bacteria.  2, fiche 1, Anglais, - quorum%20sensing

[The] EMCS consists of a gas tight incubator containing two centrifuges with space for 4 Experiment Containers on each rotor; also the life support and water supply system, the illumination and the observation system are located on the rotors. External to the incubator are the Standard Payload Computer (SPLC), the gas supply module and the thermal control system. The flight unit is accommodated in an EXPRESS Rack on the International Space Station. Ground controls will be performed in dedicated Experiment Reference Models, one located in Europe, the other at NASA Ames Research Center.  3, fiche 2, Anglais, - European%20modular%20cultivation%20system

[The] EMCS is dedicated to experiments on plants, especially multi-generation(seed-to-seed) experiments and studies on gravity effects on early development and growth, on signal perception and transduction in plant tropisms. Experiments with insects or amphibia as well as studies with cell and tissue cultures are also foreseen in EMCS.  3, fiche 2, Anglais, - European%20modular%20cultivation%20system
