Hazard of transgenic animals:
- Transgenic animals production sometimes result in species extinction.
- Transfer of recombinant DNA into other organisms.
- variation in the progeny genome
- Foreign DNA leads to mortality
- Allergic reactions
Explanation
- Due to the increase of transgenic animals ends in the extinction of certain species.
- If new gene inserted into certain organism it may leads to death of the species.
- It may leads to some allergic problems in animals also.
- Animals that have the genetic material of other organisms (foreign DNA) are called as Transgenic animals.
- With the help of genetic engineering/recombinant DNA technology, the foreign gene is inserted into the host animals.
- This done by microingection of DNA into the fertilised egg.
- Transgenic animals are used for drug testing, used to produce antibodies /other biological products.
