iGEM Nagahama 2015

Human takes a meal to live.
We use refrigerator to store food.
We use approximately 18 trillion electric powers in the world.
Do you imagine it?
Probably you cannot do it.
Electric of the refrigerator is including it. The refrigerator prevents increase bacteria. General family in the developed countries, it is is essential electric appliances to life.

In other hand, some developing countries is not charged electricity. They cannot use the refrigerator. Then we thought method for preserving foods. We researched more and more.

Resulting, we found lemon, rose, wasabi, and basil has the antibacterial activity of volatile substance. We suggested it can preserve foods using such substance. We call this “Kozoko”. "Kozoko" don’t need electricity.

We investigated studies and experimented. As a result of having conducted various investigations. I found that the fragrance (i.e. terpenoid) of the plants such as a lemon, a rose, and the basil are antibacterial. If this fragrance ingredient fills it in a box, we can preserve the food. The storage of food preservation using the fragrance from these plants seems to be called "Kozoko". The spread of "Kozoko" will solve the future energy problem, but it don’t spread present age. There are some difficult points, grinding a plant, needing environment to grow plants, and taking many costs. From these reasons, we thought "Kozoko" don’t spread present age.

There is the following reason for it.

1.It is trouble to grind a plant.

2.Itcosts to bring up plant oneself.

3.Environment raising a plant to use is necessary.

etc...

This year, we design the "Kozoko" of the modern version using synthetic biology to resolve its previous problems.
