ADVANCEMENTS AND APPLICATIONS IN ANIMAL BIOTECHNOLOGY 9
Rumen manipulation- probiotics embryo transfer technology, invitro fertilization, transgenesismethods of transferring genes into animal oocytes, eggs, embryos andspecific tissues by physical,chemical and biological methods; Biopharming -Transgenic animals (case study : Mice, Cows, Pigs,Sheep, Goat, Birds and Insects); Artificial insemination and embryo transfer.
Course Outcomes:
After completion of the course the students will be able to:
- Understand the scope, regulatory issues and commercially available productsproduced using of animal biotechnology.
- Gain knowledge about the available viral vectors that can be used to createrecombinant DNA for gene therapy purposes so that they can undertake research/project work related to biopharming.
- Understand the importance of cell culture study for invitro study purposes and forscaling up the products at commercial level.
- Gain knowledge in creating recombinant products for gene therapy purpose and theimportance of molecular probe which is an important tool for medical and forensicstudies.
- Understand the principle behind invitro fertilization and biopharming in order to createtransgenic animal of commercial importance.
