Reflection

Target audience

   Disabled children, students interested in synthetic biology, painting enthusiasts, art majors and parents, environmentalists.

Achievements

   Curcumin to make Oil Painting Stick, Synthetic Biology Version Monopoly, Curcumin Dyeing Method, Colorless Propaganda Picture Book.

Contribution

1. Biosynthetic curcumin can indeed bring practical items commonly used in daily life such as coloring and dyeing, which are closely related to people's daily life. It bring a more convenient and economical way of life for humans, and improve the quality of life in related fields;
2. The products made from curcumin have the characteristics of mold-proof, moisture-proof, safety, and pollution-free, in line with the value concept of sustainable development, and have made certain contributions to global environmental protection;
3.The practice of producing oil painting sticks with curcumin which brings colorful experiences to disabled children has confirmed that it can provide material satisfaction and spiritual support for special groups in society, which is beneficial for awakening everyone's eyes to pursue beauty and their expectations for life;
4. Understanding people's attitudes and needs towards curcumin as a pigment can help further develop this new type of pigment in the future and extend the market of biological pigments;
5. Gradually expand the target audience from young children to all levels of the public, with the aim of letting more people see the status and role of synthetic biology in the current era. Calling for the sustainable development of synthetic biology, encourages more people to join the ranks of synthetic biology, contributing a lot to synbiology.

Insufficiency

1. To continue developing curcumin pigments for marketing, it is necessary to consult relevant experts, strictly control the requirements of pigment marketing standards, undergo professional processing, and evaluate their market potential and business model.
2. In terms of practicality, it only involves the coloring and dyeing uses of curcumin in daily life, which has certain practical significance in contemporary times, but is easily replaced by new inventions. Therefore, it is necessary to extend its field of application in the future so that it will not fleeting.
3. The practice of this project focuses on the youth group, mainly reflecting the contribution of education, thus lacking remarkable significance for the elder generation group. The significance for this type of group needs further exploration in the future.

Expectation

   Through further research on the biosynthesis of curcumin, we will work on the perfection of our practical curcumin projects and make it big through scientific evaluation, bringing greater social value. At the same time, we aim at creating the objects and projects involved in this practice, striving to realize their value in new fields and even in the distant future. So the contribution of biochromes is not limited to the present, but connects with the past, moves towards the future and all human's wellbeing.
