The researchers note that further studies are needed to more completely characterize and understand the full impact of transgenic lysozyme-rich goats' milk on young pigs' intestinal bacteria, ...
Transgenic Cows Resist Mastitis-Causing Bacteria Date: April 25, 2005 Source: USDA/Agricultural Research Service Summary: U.S. Department of Agriculture researchers have used gene-transfer ...
We have developed transgenic mouse models to determine whether endogenous expression of phytase transgenes in the digestive tract of monogastric animals can increase the bioavailability of dietary ...
The young pigs fed the lysozyme-rich milk from transgenic goats had lower levels of coliform bacteria in the small intestine, including fewer Escherichia coli (E. coli), than did the control group of ...
Study explores the production of nisin protein in transgenic carrots, demonstrating its potential as a natural preservative effective against bacterial pathogens in food and juices.
Animal scientists at the University of California, Davis, have found that milk produced by transgenic goats, which carry the gene for an antibacterial enzyme found in human breast milk, altered ...
The bacteria in question are part of the Agrobacterium genus, a group of plant pathogens. Upon infection, the bacteria insert a small piece of DNA (termed T-DNA) into the plant's genome.
A new study finds that dozens of common plants, including many foods and two of the world's most popular beverages, are "natural" GMOs that contain bacterial DNA, making them transgenic as well.
Now, a new study proposes using transgenic cows to create human insulin in their milk, a process that's much more efficient than the current, transgenic yeast/bacteria method.
ABOUT one in 20 flowering plants are naturally transgenic, carrying bacterial DNA within their genomes. The added genes can make them produce unusual chemicals, and the species they have been ...
