An Overview of Pharmaceutical Contract Manufacturing

Pharmaceutical contract manufacturing is the process of outsourcing the work of manufacturing medication such as pills, tablets and capsules for consumption. It may also entail drug development processes and even regulatory support to help with the lengthy approval needed for a drug to be released on the market.

This process is actually a necessary one, not only for multi-million dollar pharmaceutical companies, but also for smaller groups and businesses that need the support of an outside facility which is equipped to handle the needs of the manufacturing course.

Biotechnology

For companies and businesses, contract manufacturing means that they can have the time and means to focus more on the business and management side of the industry. At the same time, they can also save costs from the complex methods of drug manufacturing. Thus, contract manufacturing is a boon for the field of pharmacy and biotechnology. It saves time and money.

An Overview of Pharmaceutical Contract Manufacturing

Besides that, for industries of pharmacy, food and drink, there are firm regulatory boards that have to approve new products. With the assistance of a pharmaceutical contract manufacturing firm that knows this well, a company can actually benefit from technical know-how on what formulations or manufacturing processes are best for a product to be approved, whether it is only for clinical use or for commercial release.

Finally, reputable pharmaceutical manufacturing firms hold themselves to good manufacturing practices or GMP. Not only does adhering to these practices make it easier for the products they manufacture to pass regulatory approval, but it also assures clients of their dedication to providing only the best for the good of pharmaceutical and biotechnological advancement.

Biotech R&D Tax Credit - Healthcare Reform's 50% Tax Credit For Small Biotechnology Companies

A little noticed amendment in the 2010 Healthcare Reform legislation is a 50% tax credit for small biotech companies who perform qualifying research and development. The credit was promoted by Senators from Washington, Massachusetts, and New Jersey. Although all details are not yet available it is clear that:

* Qualifying companies must have 250 employees or less

Biotechnology

* Only a limited number of activities will qualify.

Biotech R&D Tax Credit - Healthcare Reform's 50% Tax Credit For Small Biotechnology Companies

* Qualified projects must be approved by the Secretary of the Treasury in consultation with the Secretary of Health and Human Services.

* It will apply to activities and expenses occurring in 2009 and 2010.

* It is available to pass through entities such as partnerships, S corps, as well as traditional C corps.

* For non-taxpaying entities a tax free grant of equal value can be made.

* Qualifying "therapeutic discovery projects" must have the potential to do one of three things:

* Result in new therapies "to treat areas of unmet medical need" or "to prevent, detect or treat chronic or acute diseases and conditions,"

* Or "to reduce long-term health care costs in the United States"

* Or "significantly advance the goal of curing cancer within a 30-years period."

* Other factors to be considered are projects with the greatest potential

* To "create and sustain high quality, high paying jobs in the United States, and"

* To "advance United States competitiveness in the fields of life, biological and medical sciences."

There is a limitation to the tax credit. Total funds available are billion over both 2009 and 2010. Details of the program could be available as early as June, 2010. Credit application filings should begin 30 days later. The challenge for smaller biotechnology companies will be first understanding the requirements, and then documenting their activities and expenses.

In many ways this is like the challenges for companies filing for §41 Research Tax Credits. This creates justifiable concern. For decades large corporations spending millions on R&D have also spent millions on tax advisors trying to figure out how to document their R&D expenses to qualify for federal and state research tax credits. This dilemma has caused companies to develop complex, time consuming and costly processes for interviewing R&D engineers and trying to reconstruct R&D activity, expenses, and critical supporting documentation well after the fiscal year end. The result has often been incomplete documentation, inaccurate reporting, and a significant loss of tax credits on IRS audit.

To avoid this dilemma, smaller companies must look to documentation methodologies that have proven to capture the maximum QRE (those of you already filing for §41 credits know this as qualified research expense), while also complete, accurate and contemporaneous documentation to demonstrate the qualifying activities. Considering the short time companies will have to prepare their documentation for this new Biotech Tax Credit, it could be difficult.

One possible solution is to assemble teams of tax accountants to survey your activities, receipts, and other documentation, and then prepare, item by item a report that will support your claim. Unfortunately, this is prohibitively expensive and even for the biggest firms, often unreliable.

Other solutions use high technology. In the past few years a few companies have developed systems that allow engineers to record data into spreadsheets or project management applications. The limitation of these systems is that it puts the burden of knowing what qualifies for tax credit on the engineer or other operations personnel.

Another solution is to have all reporting personnel document their R&D activity on a central database. This can be called a resource information exchange. There are service providers using this methodology and in at least one case packaging that online service with research tax credit expertise. The advantage to the subscribing company is that these high-tech services are significantly less costly, highly efficient, and very accurate.

In the words of Rick Humphrey, President of RIX® Technology, LLC, "Resource information exchange services typically offer what every small company is looking for to obtain this new Biotech Tax Credit. They are comparatively inexpensive, easy to learn and use, and will allow them to start documenting current R&D activity immediately. Most services allow for backfill of prior activities in the set-up process and would capture all 2009 activity and expenses. But the real benefit of online technology and databases is that it is a permanent resource, a knowledge base for future reference and use."

Small companies who are on tight budgets simply can't afford the huge fees of public accounting or large specialty tax firms, especially if they lose a significant amount of their credit on IRS review. So picking the right system and methodology for documenting their R&D activity is very important. It is especially important for pass-through entities that can directly benefit investors and for start-up firms that are not yet in a taxpaying situation. This methodology is already proven to provide the maximum allowable tax credits as efficiently as possible while providing additional benefits, including the ability for rapid filing.

In the case of the Biotech Tax Credit it is particularly important to have a system of documentation that the IRS can access easily and methodically. With an online system, activity and expenses are collected contemporaneously (gathered at the time of activity and including all qualified expenditures that occur) and maintained in a database. This online database allows the IRS, with client controlled access, to examine the data online without having to visit and disrupt your operation. If that isn't possible, make sure you have your supporting documentation readily available and in one location. With the Biotech Tax Credit rapid response is particularly important because competitors will be soaking up their portion of the billion quickly while others wait for Treasury approval.

For small to medium sized biotechnology companies this is a huge opportunity. As a quote from Sen. Menendez website1 states, this "Creates a credit that would encourage investments in new therapies to prevent, diagnose, and treat acute and chronic disease, lower health care costs."

With the new Biotech R&D Tax Credit many companies will be able to turn their early development costs into cash long before they reap the benefit of their products going to market. But, don't wait too long to get in line. The bank for this benefit will empty quickly.

The Challenges of a Changing Landscape

A quarter of a century after the launch of the first biotechnology drug, the global biotechnology industry finds itself split. Many startups and middle-aged companies remain unable to realize their long-anticipated aims and are

steadily losing money. But the more successful companies are being acquired by Big Pharma to fill a dry pipeline and bolster their otherwise loss-making operations. In both cases, these biotech companies are finding that margin maximization and cost reduction are moving ever higher up the agenda. Indeed, this rapidly maturing industry, which has historically focused much of its effort on volume growth, is now facing operational challenges as severe as those faced by more casehardened sectors.

Biotechnology

One tool these companies are using to develop a response to the changing environment is benchmarking.

The Challenges of a Changing Landscape

Using a combination of metric benchmarking and process benchmarking, they are finding out not only the extent to which they need to be better to compete, but also the specific operational practices that need to change for them to achieve better results.

Tefen's recent bio-benchmark study, with six of the biggest names in the sector, was designed to reveal an overview of their operations from the inside. The study's aim was to identify the main levers that influenced each participant's results, and to guide them toward necessary changes. In doing so the benchmarking study uncovered the trends and challenges facing the industry, and the ways companies are coping with them. As a young industry, biotech companies have been used to focusing their efforts on filling the market with their eagerly anticipated product. Today, demand remains strong in certain areas but generally the market has slowed and in some areas, become saturated. The emergence of competition has led to excess capacity and severe price erosion, and these companies have had to adapt their operational strategies accordingly. Senior executives in biotech find themselves dealing with challenges typically faced by more mature businesses. They find they must switch focus from creating capacity to improving productivity: the operation is required to be faster yet cheaper.

The changing landscape is making itself felt in a number of key areas. In light of reduced prices, costs have become too high. Overhead recovery needs to improve. Also, because of worsening forecast reliability and the growing extent of product variety needed to supply new markets, flexibility needs to improve and lead-times need to be reduced, both in manufacturing and development. And as the focus shifts from growth to cost reduction, the balance of talent at all levels needs to tip away from scientific and project management skills to operational leadership skills. It's one thing to list the needed improvements and another to

execute them. The benchmark study found typical obstacles, including general protraction of management and production processes, even compared with the sluggish pace of bureaucracy in the pharmaceutical industry. Product release can take 60 days compared with 7 to 20 days for the best companies. Deviations take 35 to 40 days on average to clear, while the best companies managed this in 10 to 15 days. And changes in procedure take on average 10 to 15 weeks to be approved. Another obstacle is that cost reduction efforts are slow to impact. Despite rising cost pressure, little time, typically 2% to 10%, is spent in driving cost reduction opportunities and in 2007 operational costs were reduced by only 4% to 5%. Plant utilization is running at an average of 70% to 80%, which is poor for a capital-intensive process industry. Inconsistency of internal processes causes waste. The benchmark study found that biotech manufacturing averages 15 non-conformances per batch compared with one to two at the best sites, and all deviations require investigation. The majority do not affect product quality but still, some 5% of batches are found to be out of specification and have to be discarded.

Biotech companies also have to cope with raw material supplies not growing in line with demand. Risks to the entire supply chain are intensifying as more companies vie over the same suppliers. Companies may wait more than half a year for raw materials and the entire industry is too dependent on single sources for key materials, putting delivery at risk and impairing flexibility. As the industry matures, brilliance in R&D isn't enough. The companies need excellent business management skills at all levels, yet there is a lack of managerial talent and the churn rate is high. Biotech companies typically lose 10% of their staff each year. How do they prevail against these odds? The companies showing the best benchmark results were ones that took an active approach, that understand profit to depend on operational excellence, and took steps.

One "secret", the study showed, was to forge tight working relationships between production, R&D and industrialization, which accelerated the R&D process. Crossfunctional teamwork helps resolve deviations speedily. Some companies even started linking remuneration to speed of product-flow and decisionmaking.

Another crucial element is to work more closely with raw material suppliers, while in parallel diversifying sources to reduce supply risks. Within production, investment in new technologies is working to increase yields and processes are being reengineered to reduce variation and decrease the minor non-conformances. Multi-skilling and job rotation programs can be instituted to increase motivation and retention, while improving the match between skills and business needs. Personal development and succession-planning processes are gaining in prominence, as is working with external local academic institutions. Employee needs are being addressed for the sake of retention. Flexibility is the word, including through offering part-time options. In parallel, maturing biotech firms are learning to outsource noncore activities such as packaging, to improve overhead recovery and reduce variable cost.

The proof of the pudding

Benchmarking proved itself to be a valuable tool in highlighting key issues and solutions in biotechnology in general, though the lessons have broad application to industry as a whole. Diagnostic benchmarking is relatively inexpensive and delivers proportionately high benefits, so long as both performance metrics and enabling practices are evaluated, and as long as the output is heeded.

The study portrays the picture of an industry traversing through its lifecycle. We see the shift in emphasis through the embryonic and growth phases into the shakeout phase. The effect of competition has forced many companies to focus on their poor operational performance. Operational Excellence has ceased to be an ephemeral fad, but a source of real competitive advantage. Companies lagging in performance excellence are facing ever greater external pressure.

The majority of biotech companies face similar external pressures - intensifying competition, excess capacity, talent constraints. The diagnostic study showed their common issues: how to accelerate development, increase productivity, reduce manufacturing lead-times, manage costs and how to recruit and retain the right staff.

Many prove to be tackling the issues in the same way. Most are trying to improve margins by improving productivity - achieving the same output with fewer people. They are trying to speed up manufacturing and product development by simplifying management processes. They are working more tightly with suppliers to ensure reliable supply. They are reorganizing themselves around value-streams to attain better line-of-sight to their customers; and they are redoubling their efforts to retain and develop staff.

Coordination and Biotech Research

One of the reasons why Africa and other poor regions of the world trail in crop biotechnology is lack of collaboration and coordination among scientists. There are millions of well-trained crop biotechnologists in poor countries. But due to resource constraints and other challenges, hardly do they work together. So, we have a situation where so many scientists, working in different parts of the continent, are engaged in identical biotech projects. It's like a case of one hand not knowing what the other is doing.

At a time when Africa desperately needs crop biotechnology to alleviate hunger and malnutrition, its scientists should be moving towards collaborative research. Scientists who pull in different directions can't make any meaningful impact in the scientific world. Cooperation, not competition, is the bane of science. With regard to crop biotechnology, collaboration is urgently needed if Africa dreams of solving its endemic food problems.

Biotechnology

Currently, Africa is playing host to top-notch research in crop biotechnology. Dr. Florence Wambugu of Africa Harvest Biotech Foundation International is busy developing a new strain of wheat resistant to drought and common fungal diseases. Dr. Wambugu is an authority in genetic engineering and has been leading the campaign to persuade Africa to embrace genetically modified crops. Dr. Monty Jones of the Africa Rice Centre (WARDA), in a groundbreaking research, has developed New Rice for Africa (Nerica), resistant to drought and pests, which is bound to enhance food security in many West African countries. Dr. Jones' expertise in genetic engineering can be a big asset to Africa is shared.

Coordination and Biotech Research

Organizations like International Maize and Wheat Improvement Centre (CIMMYT), Insect Resistant Maize for Africa (IRMA) and International Service for the Acquisition of Agri-biotech Applications (ISAAA), too, are engaged in high-tech crop biotechnology research. Their work deserve praise, but they stand to achieve more if there is more sharing.

Perhaps, a recently mooted idea by South African scientists is worth considering.They have formed an umbrella organization, which seeks to consolidate the gains already made in modern biotechnology. Called the African Centre for Gene Technology (ACGT), the body will act as a centre of excellence for all African scientists involved in biotech research. In Kenya, the African Biotechnology Stakeholders Forum is promoting partnerships and education. African scientists should embrace these projects and see them as opportunities for self-growth. Investors in North America, Europe and elsewhere should be investing and partnering with these organizations and scientists. After all, they have a common goal - to alleviate hunger and malnutrition

Science Project That Is Easy for Kids

Agriculture plays a part in our every day lives and it is useful to learn and know about the environment around us. This science project will assess the growth rate of several different types of grass seed. It is suitable for 7th grade or 8th grade students but high school students in agriculture or horticulture classes may enjoy and benefit from doing this experiment.

Go your local lawn and garden store and pick up these items:

Biotechnology

4 pots

Science Project That Is Easy for Kids

Soil

Annual rye grass seed

Fescue grass seed

Blue grass seed

Bermuda or any other type of seed they may have available

Fertilizer

You will not need large quantities of any of these items so if you can buy a quarter of a pound of each or less just for your project it would be best. If you tell the people working at the store they may even have a little from an open bag that you could have especially if it is for school purposes. You will also not need much fertilizer.

Put each of your pots on a plate so that the water and soil do not drain all over your counter. If you have a few old aluminum pie plates they will work as well. Put soil into the pots and fill about 2/3 full. Then in each pot sprinkle a different grass seed. You can sprinkle at least a tablespoonful or two of the seed into the pot to make sure you have success. Sprinkle about 1/4 inch more soil on top of the seed.

Place all the pots in the same place with the same amount of light and temperature. Water each with about ¼ cup of water. If you can use a sprinkling can to lightly sprinkle the top of the soil to moisten that would be best. You do not want to soak the seeds and drown them.

Get some graph paper and each day for the next two weeks watch your pots. When you notice any germination note what type of seed it was and how much you see. Did only one blade of grass show up? Do you see many? Continue watching over the next few days to see if other varieties start to grow and how fast each one does.

Which grass seed germinated the fastest? Did any other seed pass up the first one when it started growing? This is a great science project for 7th grade 8th grade or high school students to learn about growing things.

It started with the planting of crops for specific qualities, breeding animals for particular traits and even cross pollination of plants.

Biotechnology has many applications in various fields. Here are some of those applications.

Biotechnology

Health Care: some chemicals are too complex to be produced by normal chemical and industrial processes. Such complex materials can be produced in living cells such as bacteria, yeast and mammalian cells. These cells can be manipulated to produce useful chemicals and medicines. This method has been used for the development of antibiotics and vaccines to cure and prevent diseases. The greatest application of biotechnology is in the field of genetics. The study of genes and DNA has revealed that mutated genes are responsible for diseases like cancer and other fatal diseases. In the future, perhaps we may be able of screen infants for such mutations and correct them.

The Miracles Of Biotechnologies

Agriculture: Humans depend on crops for a steady supply of food. Some factors like the weather and other natural disasters can affect the productivity of crops and farms. This has led to research in the field of agriculture and methods of improving yield. Biotechnology is now been used to improve the yield of crops. This is achieved by making the crops more robust to the environment and resistant to pests and diseases. It can also be used to boost the nutritional qualities of the food.

Industrial and Environmental: Biotechnology can be used to design microorganisms to do wondrous things. They can be designed to produce chemicals that are not easy to produce. For example they can be used to produce biodegradable plastics and biofuels. They can also be designed to produce microorganisms that can breakdown harmful chemicals that are the result of industrial processes. For example, they can be used to clean up oil spills that are polluting and hard to clean up.

Biotechnology is an exciting and upcoming field. A career in it can be exciting and path breaking.

Biotech Development

In today's times, science has developed far beyond the imagination. There was a time, when people were scared of the word cancer, but now the scenario has changed, as with the help of advanced technology, a dreaded disease such as cancer is easily detectable in its earlier stage and treatment may help cure this health hazard.

However, the development in the field of science that is actually changing the face of every essential commodity of man is a new field of science named as Biotechnology. Biotechnology is a field of science, which helps in producing useful products by either deliberate or controlled manipulation of the biological systems. The biological systems used may either be living cells or cell elements.

Biotechnology

Detection of Toxicity in Human Body:

Biotech Development

The developments in the field of biotechnology are taking place at a tremendously rapid rate. One such development in the field of biotechnology relates to the immune system of humans. With the help of biotechnological techniques, researchers have found a particular level of Cytotoxicity (the degree of toxicity) in the human body.

Cytotoxicity is the quality of any substance, which tends to be poisonous for the cells of the body. For instance, immune cells of the body, acids are cytotoxic substances. Researchers, when detecting toxicity in laboratory conditions selected volunteers, who had passed all the body developmental process.

Cytotoxicity assay is a cost-efficient and a rapid means to detect the level of toxicity. The name of the Cytotoxicity examination is Ricerca's in vitro assay. This is a very sensitive assessment, as it helps in detecting individuals, who are able to tolerate the toxicity by a particular drug and individuals, who are likely to fail the test. Researchers designed this assay to detect the level of toxicity caused by drugs containing lead compounds.

To detect the toxic levels caused by lead, researchers dissolved lead compounds in DMSO (Dimethyl Sulfoxide) and carried serial dilutions with a concentrated range of 0.5-1000 mm. These along with plated human cells go for incubation at 37 0C for four hours. Researchers measure the toxicity using absorbance or change in fluorescence.

Biocatalysis - Has the Time For Using Bio-Based Processes Finally Arrived?

Biocatalysis-the use of enzymes to catalyze a chemical reaction-has become a scientific buzz word. To be clear, a biocatalyst can be one or more enzymes or cells-living, dormant, or dead-and the reaction can be a single chemical reaction or series of reactions. Thus, biocatalysis includes the one-step enzymatic production of aspartic acid (a component of the non-caloric sweetener aspartame), the two-step oxidation of ethanol to acetic acid (vinegar can be made this way, and if it is, it is called natural), and the multi-step brewing of beer (quite likely the oldest example of biocatalysis, with historical records dating back 6000 years!). Proponents say biocatalysis is green and sustainable. Critics will tell you that it is often costly and requires a development timeline that is too long to meet the needs of real world industrial manufacturing. What is the reality?

At the outset it is important to point out that biocatalysis is not a panacea, and never will be, and I say this as an evangelist for biocatalysis. There are both pros and cons for the use of biocatalysis as compared to more traditional chemical catalysis. As a catalyst, a biocatalyst does what any catalyst can do: increases the rate at which a chemical reaction takes place, but does not affect the thermodynamics of the reaction. To take maximum advantage of biocatalysis, we need to understand what biocatalysts do well, and equally what they do poorly, and then seek to implement biocatalysts in processes that benefit from their advantages.

Biotechnology

One of the most important advantages of biocatalysts is high selectivity, manifested as stereo-selectivity (for chiral synthesis or separation, often used for the synthesis of pharmaceutical intermediates in which only one stereoisomer possesses the desired biological activity), positional selectivity (also known as regio-selectivity, allowing selective modification of a specific site in a molecule), and functional group selectivity (i.e. chemo-selectivity, allowing one type of chemical functional group to be modified in the presence of another, sometimes more reactive functional group).

Biocatalysis - Has the Time For Using Bio-Based Processes Finally Arrived?

Such selectivity is highly desirable in chemical synthesis, offering benefits such as higher yields, fewer side reactions, elimination of protection and de-protection steps, purer products, easier recovery and separation, and reduced environmental waste. There are also operational advantages, including the ability to carry out reactions under mild operational conditions, avoiding extremes of pH, temperature, and pressure that often require the use of expensive equipment or energy intensive processing. Biocatalytic processes also rely on catalysts that are biodegradable and are produced from renewable resources, meaning the processes are typically "greener" and more sustainable. Since there is an enzymatic counterpart to most known chemical reactions, the potential scope for the application of biocatalysis is broad.

Practically speaking, however, this breadth of scope in the chemical industry has not been realized. Presently, I estimate that well over 100 different biocatalytic processes are implemented in pharmaceutical, chemical, agricultural, and food industries, which may at first glance seem considerable. However, this represents only a small fraction of the processes developed and carried out currently. Enzymes have not yet been developed to cover as broad a spectrum of chemical reactions as have chemo-catalysts. Researchers in both academia and companies are working to overcome this limitation, but it will take time.

Speed of process development is also often slower for biocatalytic processes than their chemical counterparts, in part due to the lack of experience that chemists have with the use of enzymes and microbial cells. Modern biotechnological tools now allow enzymes to be significantly improved-optimized-for a desired reaction, but this optimization is often too costly and time-consuming to meet tight timelines; therefore, broad application remains elusive. By focusing now on those reactions where enzymatic alternatives are already well-developed, honing our expertise in using biocatalysis, and staying abreast of future developments that will bring a wider range of practical biocatalytic alternatives, we can choose wisely where to invest resources to maximize the value of this rapidly developing technology.

Digital Micro Imaging For Biotechnology Research

We humans have been harnessing biological processes to make life a little sweeter ever since the first developments in agriculture. Tapping into life's processes to make things such as cheese, bread, and beer (the essentials) has been going on for thousands of years. Now, there is a whole area of digital micro imaging for biotechnology research which encompasses the vast applications of these biological processes.

The field of applied biology called biotechnology uses living organisms and bioprocesses to do truly amazing things. Biotechnology is used in engineering, technology, medicine, and other fields requiring bioproducts. Biotechnology is also used in genetically modified foods, transgenic crops and animals, biopharmaceuticals, recombinant DNA technology, and bioremediation.

Biotechnology

Leading companies in micro imaging research are using new technology that allows for the extraction of even the smallest biomaterials from heterogeneous tissue and cell colonies. The secret behind the method is a pure, contact-free optical technique that is gentle enough to facilitate micro dissection and the manipulation of living cells in culture. The best digital microscopes come equipped with the latest in laser technology. This allows for contact-free and contamination-free specimen capture and micro dissection.

Digital Micro Imaging For Biotechnology Research

Researchers who use digital micro imaging for biotechnology research report a vast increase in workflow speed. The image is displayed using an integrated camera onto a monitor or projection screen. Integrated color management ensures for brilliant images in true color. By bypassing the need for eyepieces, digital micro imaging technology avoids painful muscle tension and eye strain. Something that travels faster than ever in the world today is information. With integrated E-mail function and remote viewing, sharing work and discussing work with partners is easier than ever. Now, researchers can get the work they need to get done faster, wherever they are.

In modern medicine, biotechnology has promising applications in a number of areas. Drug production and pharmaceuticals have both made ready use of biotechnology. Modern methods of manufacturing pharmaceutical products frequently make use of biotechnology. Biotechnology first saw use in pharmaceutical manufacturing with recombinant DNA technology to modify Escherichia coli bacteria. This resulted in the production of human insulin.

Before this technique was discovered, insulin was extracted from the pancreas glands of cattle and pigs. Although animal-derived insulin is mostly effective in treating diabetes, allergic reactions were noted to sometimes occur. This can be accredited to the subtle differences between insulin derived from humans and farm animals.

Genetic researchers were able to produce two genes for each of the two protein chains that comprise the insulin molecule. The genes are then inserted into plasmids among a group of genes that are activated by lactose. The result is two insulin-producing genes activated by lactose. By inserting the recombinant plasmids into Escherichia coli bacteria and combining the two protein chains, the bacteria produces as much as 100,000 molecules of human insulin.

Before recombinant DNA was used to modify bacteria and produce the human growth hormone, the hormone had to be extracted from the pituitary gland of cadavers. Unlike animal derived-insulin, animal growth hormones have no therapeutic upshot for mankind to date. The hormone was constantly seeing significant shortages since it took fifty cadavers to supply a single year's supply of the growth hormone.

Digital micro imaging for biotechnology research is also used in gene therapy, an important process involved in treating cancer. The technology and techniques behind gene therapy are still in developmental stages; however, it has been used with some success for treating or curing genetic and acquired diseases such as cancer and AIDS. Biotechnology has also found use in genetic testing, such as prenatal diagnostic screening. There are many benefits of using this technology to test and learn about a fetus. Presymptomatic testing for a number of different diseases and disorders is possible, and the sex of the future baby can also be determined.
