By using recombinant DNA techniques rather than traditional mating, scientists have created transgenic fish. The” new” DNA is introduced into the fish either by direct insertion into the eggs or by subjecting them to electric pulses.
The fast booming application of transgenic fish technology has led to many valuable discoveries in different disciplines of the biological sciences, many of which could potentially lead to the next breakthrough in new treatments for human diseases.
The National Institute of Science and Media along with distinguished writer Joel Ball has a series of books published on biotechnology and science which provide an in-depth knowledge on the recent advances made in the field.
