Mr Jason S Martinez Biotechnology ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES
Mr. Jason S. Martinez Biotechnology ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES Mr. Jason S. Martinez
Mr. Jason S. Martinez Objective Identify the advantages and disadvantages of using a living organisms in in research and in industry
Mr. Jason S. Martinez Biotechnology – the exploitation of biological processes for industrial and other purposes, especially the genetic manipulation of microorganisms for the production of antibiotics, hormones, etc. The use of microorganisms, cells, or cell components to make a product Including: Foods Antibiotics Vitamins Enzymes
Mr. Jason S. Martinez Types of biotechnology Recombinant, R protein, R DNA Genetically Modified Organism (GMO) Antibody (monoclonal antibody) Transgenic Gene therapy Immunotherapy Tissue engineering
Mr. Jason S. Martinez Applications virus-resistant crop plants and livestock diagnostics for detecting genetic diseases and acquired diseases therapies that use genes to cure diseases recombinant vaccines to prevent disease biotechnology can also aid the environment
products of biotech Mr. Jason S. Martinez
products of biotech Mr. Jason S. Martinez
Mr. Jason S. Martinez Applications Agriculture Plant breeding to improve resistance to pests, diseases, drought and salt conditions Mass propagation of plant clones Bioinsecticide development modification of plants to improve nutritional and processing characteristics Chemical Industry Production of bulk chemicals and solvents such as ethanol, citric acid, acetone and butanol Synthesis of fine specialty chemicals such as enzymes, amino acids, alkaloids and antibiotics
Mr. Jason S. Martinez Applications Medicine Development of novel therapeutic molecules for medical treatments Diagnostics Drug delivery systems Tissue engineering of replacement organs Gene therapy
Mr. Jason S. Martinez Applications Food Industry Production of bakers' yeast, cheese, yogurt and fermented foods such as vinegar and soy sauce Brewing and wine making Production of flavors and coloring agents Veterinary Practice Vaccine production Fertility control Livestock breeding
Mr. Jason S. Martinez Applications Environment Biological recovery of heavy metals from mine tailings and other industrial sources Bioremediation of soil and water polluted with toxic chemicals Sewage and other organic waste treatment
Mr. Jason S. Martinez DNA Recombination
Mr. Jason S. Martinez Recombinant DNA – r. DNA; DNA molecules formed using laboratory methods DNA molecules formed by laboratory methods of genetic recombination to bring together genetic material from multiple sources, creating sequences that would not otherwise be found in the genome.
Mr. Jason S. Martinez Transformation - This process of bacterial cell 2 taking up new genetic material (r. DNA).
Mr. Jason S. Martinez Genetic Engineering
Mr. Jason S. Martinez Genetic Engineering Genetic engineering – human manipulation of an organism’s genetic material in a way that does not occur under natural conditions. Scientists were able to incorporate the ”glowing gene” from jellyfish into various organisms
Mr. Jason S. Martinez Genetic Engineering GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms) Many plants have been modified to create GMO versions. Apples and Tomatoes have been altered to allow them to last longer, grow bigger, become resistant to disease, and more.
