Medicine and Technology
Genetic engineering has opened the door to possibilities once confined to science fiction. One of the most surprising developments is the creation of genetically modified animals, not just for scientific research but as future pets. This article explores this fascinating and controversial area of biotechnology. Pets of the Future Genetically Modified Animals
CRISPR-Cas9: This genetic editing tool allows scientists to modify DNA with unprecedented precision, paving the way for a wide range of applications, including the creation of genetically modified animals. Key Technologies Cloning and Genetic Modification: In addition to CRISPR, cloning and other genetic modification techniques are being used to create animals with specific traits, such as hypoallergenic pets or animals with enhanced abilities.
Applications in Pets Hypoallergenic Pets:
Scientists are working on genetically modifying dogs and cats to produce fewer allergens, making them accessible to people with allergies.
