Potential biohazards of recombinant DNA molecules.
Recent advances in techniques for the isolation and rejoining of segments of DNA now permit construction of biologically active recombinant DNA molecules in vitro. For example, DNA restriction endonucleases, which generate DNA fragments containing cohesive ends especially suitable for rejoining, have been used to create new types of biologically functional bacterial plasmids carrying antibiotic...
متن کاملBenefits and Concerns Associated with Recombinant DNA Biotechnology-Derived Foods
Today, nutrient deficiency diseases in the Western world are a distant memory. A huge variety of food is available year round. For this to be possible, many of these foods are grown thousands of miles away from where we live, and processed by people we neither see nor know. Furthermore, in the United States, expenditures for food are among the lowest in the world—about 10% of average family inc...
متن کاملOULIPO | VS | Recombinant Poetics
This paper compares and contrasts approaches to combinatorics in OULIPO and Recombinant Poetics. OULIPO, also known as Ouvroir de Litérature Potentielle, is a literary and artistic association founded in the 1960s whose combinatoric methods and experimental concepts continue to be generative and relevant to this day. Recombinant Poetics is a term that I coined in 1995 in order to define a parti...
متن کاملA hypothetical protocol for DIYBIO DNA synthesis
DNA synthesis has traditionally been beyond the home enthusiast or small amateur groups. Most DNA synthesis these days involves the phosphoramidite method. [17] This involves a number of hard to acquire and often toxic chemicals. Some work has been done to reduce the burden of expense of these special chemicals and increase throughput by printing lots of different DNA sequences on one surface o...
متن کاملUnemploxment vs. . . . : Reconsidering unemployment benefits
We develop an equilibrium search-matching model with risk-neutral agents and two-sided ex-ante heterogeneity. Unemployment insurance has the standard e®ect of reducing employment, but also helps workers to get a suitable job. The predictions of our simple model are consistent with the contrasting performance of the labor market in Europe and US in terms of unemployment, productivity growth and ...
