Earlier than 1756, Cordyceps has been adopted to treat diseases in China.
Nowadays, scientists find cordycepin (COR) in Cordyceps militaris which has a great clinical potential.
But the price of cordycepin is too high at approximately 1500 dollars per gram.
How can we decrease the price to make a wider usage and more research of COR?
Our solution: CORegulaTIN
Advantages
Cheap raw materials
The only cost is the medium which can be very cheap.
Automatic fermentation
To avoid pollution
To save labor
Byproduct
We can get pentostatin(PTN) at the same time.
We performed a market analysis to see whether our project is meaningful. Also, we designed a business plan to do further after iGEM.
