A Review of the Use of Genetic Engineering Practices and the Impact of Gene Editing in Healthcare and Biotechnology

Genetic engineering is an integral approach to the development of new diagnostic techniques, drugs for human and animal diseases, foods for human health, development of tissues, and cells for xenotransplantation. The components of vaccine for disease control and nutraceuticals for human health provide proteins; peptides and other components may be an integral part of human life in the coming days. Genetically engineered animals also offer significant human health and environmental benefits; livestock becomes more efficient for converting feed to animal protein and reducing waste production, by imparting resistance to disease and good health. The techniques permit individuals or groups of genes to be isolated from large masses of DNA and produced in virtually unlimited quantities. Genetic engineering in animal production has a growing number of practical benefits, such as in the production of transgenic animal’s resistant to disease, increasing the productivity of animals, in the treatment of genetic disorders, and the production of vaccines

Microbial cellulose: an alternate source for plant cellulose

In the contemporary generation, rapid urbanization, industrialization, and declining woodland lead to global weather modifications. The massive scale of deforestation for firewood, constructions, paper products, textile, and plenty of different packages are steadily enforcing a critical poor impact on the surroundings. Inherently, plant cellulose has restrained utility because of the presence of hemicellulose and lignin. Consequently, studies in the discipline of microbial cellulose display many benefits over plant cellulose. It possesses numerous crucial and unique properties compared to plant cellulose, including high purity, better absorptivity, excellent polymerization, crystallization, in-situ mold potential, biodegradability, biocompatibility, and plenty of others. This assessment looks into a potent cellulose producer to develop an economically feasible manner for huge-scale production of microbial cellulose therefore, it may replace some of the requirements where plant cellulose has been currently in use

The Symphony of Sentience, in Cosmos and Life: In Memoriam Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka

This volume presents discussions on a wide range of topics focused on eco-phenomenology and the interdisciplinary investigation of contemporary environmental thought. Starting out with a Tymieniecka Memorial chapter, the book continues with papers on the foundations, theories, readings and philosophical sources of eco-phenomenology. In addition, it examines issues of phenomenological anthropology, ecological perspectives of the human relationship to nature, and phenomenology of the living body and the virtual body. Furthermore, the volume engages in a dialogue with contemporary behavioral sciences on topics such as eco-alienation, sustainability, and the human relationship to the earth in the context of the cosmos
