Results for tag: "Genetic Engineering"

Genetic Engineering is a field of biotechnology that involves the manipulation of genetic material to create new organisms with desired traits. It is closely related to genomics, which is the study of the structure, function, and evolution of genomes. Genetic Engineering is used to modify existing organisms, such as plants and animals, to produce desired traits, such as disease resistance or increased yield. It is also used to create new organisms, such as bacteria that can produce useful proteins or enzymes. Genetic Engineering has become increasingly important in the development of new drugs, diagnostics, and treatments for diseases. It is also used in the production of food, such as genetically modified crops, and in the development of new materials, such as bioplastics. Some companies in the Genetic Engineering market include Thermo Fisher Scientific, Illumina, Agilent Technologies, Merck KGaA, and Cellectis. Show Less Read more
