VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 04, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) —
Core One Labs Inc.
(CSE: COOL), (OTC: CLABD), (Frankfurt: LD6, WKN: A3CSSU) (the “
Company
” or “
Core One
”) is a research and development company focused on bringing psychedelic medicines to market through the development and production of API grade psychedelic compounds, the advancement of psychedelic assisted treatments, and the integration of novel delivery system technology. The Company is excited to announce information regarding the status and timing of its breakthrough psilocybin technology that was presented by Dr. Robert E.W. Hancock, Executive Chairman during its August 4, 2021, Virtual Town Hall.
Patent is Ready
“
We already have a
patent written
, we could file it today, but we are holding on filing the patent until we have worked through all of the possible tweaks to the technology, that a competitor could use to replicate it…. There is huge value to maintain this technology as proprietary
,” stated Dr. Hancock. “At this stage I estimate we will be ready to file the patent within a month or so, and to make deeper announcements about the technology in the month following that.”
With real opportunity for substantial profitability, Core One is doing everything they can to ensure that their technology is well protected.
Potential Profitability
“
Currently psilocybin is [very] expensive [when produced chemically or from mushrooms]…. We have estimated we can produce it for considerably less
,” stated Dr. Hancock. This takes into account input material, equipment costs, labour and clean up, and it positions Core One Labs to produce the
lowest
cost psilocybin on the market.
Biosynthetic Production
Core One Labs’ proprietary production method will reshape the way the industry produces psilocybin.
“The [general] method we use for production and extraction of psilocybin is tried and true. The production method itself, which is a sub section of production technology called ‘
recombinant’
production technology, is utilized for really common substances such as when making insulin, human growth hormones, or amino acids
,” stated Dr. Hancock.
Strategic Partnership
Core One has collaborated with one of the world’s top institutions to expedite its research, and further the development of its technology. “
The University of British Colombia is one of the top 30 universities in the world … The collaboration with UBC allows us to access all of the tremendous equipment infrastructure and tremendous minds
,” stated Dr. Hancock.
