<p><div class="text_font">The costs of the production are made up of the following six parts:</div></p>
 
<p><div class="text_font">1.The cost of the raw material</div></p>
 
<p><div class="text_font">Most astaxanthin sold in the market nowadays are extracted from Haematococcus pluvialis.However,the extraction from Haematococcus pluvialis require a high level of industrial technology and the autotrophic stage of Haematococcus pluvialis last for a long period of time and,resulting in a high cost of the astaxanthin.For example,astaxanthin produced by Snobel require a high cost(probably take up 30% of the total cost).But the astaxanthin extracted from rice require a lower cost of the raw material because rice is easiler to grow and extract,in other words,astaxanthin can extracted from rice without demanding technology.</div></p>
 
<p><div class="text_font">2.The labour cost</div></p>
 
<p><div class="text_font">Most of the companies which sell astaxanthin extracted from Haematococcus pluvialis are in European and American areas because the productions of astaxanthin require high level of industrial technology.The labour cost in these areas are high(probably take up 15% of the total cost).If we extract astaxanthin from rice,we can set up factories in developing countries(no demanding technology is required during the production of astaxanthin),which greatly reduce the labour cost.</div></p>
 
<p><div class="text_font">3.The packing cost</div></p>
 
<p><div class="text_font">The packing cost probably take up 10% of the total cost.</div></p>
 
<p><div class="text_font">4.The cost of marketing</div></p>
 
<p><div class="text_font">This part of cost probably take up 30% of the total cost.</div></p>
 
<p><div class="text_font">5.Other costs</div></p>
 
<p><div class="text_font">Other costs mean the costs generate during storage,transport and the cost of loss unexpectedly(for example,the loss due to the humid weather).These costs take up probably 15% of the total cost of the good.But the astaxanthin extracted from rice may have a lower costs because they show a better quality when the products are transported or stored.</div></p>
 
<p><div class="text_font">6.Tariff</div></p>
 
<p><div class="text_font">When the product are imported from other countries,tariff should be paid and it will take up probably 15% of the total cost of the product.And little differences are shown between the astaxanthin producted by different methods.</div></p>

Collarboration

This summary,we contact with iGEM team and have a meeting with them.In the meeting,the members of SCAU-China share us some experience about team building,doing experiments,building models and making wiki.And we learnt about that in their project,rice are used as the material to produce astaxanthin,which is supposed to be a economic way to produce astaxanthin.They want to know what will be the cost of the astaxanthin and we also have an interest on this ,so we proposed to make a comparison of the costs for astaxanthin productions in differenr method.Finally,we can found that rice can be a great kind of material to produce astaxanthin because it can lower the price of astaxanthin greatly and make astaxanthin more accessible to the public.
