yes, we can replace animal studies with in-vitro studies but there are limitations like we can not test antiepileptic effects or antipsychotic effect. all we can do it that try to reduce the use of animals for that we should knpw the 4R consept

In vitro testing can replace animal testing to a certain extent but the technology still needs to be worked on in terms of specificity of results. The condition in in-vitro testing is not same as in any body and this leads to uncertainity in results....

Well ACC techniques are a boon in clinical reaearch. Reasons include: 1. Animal usage for testing is reduced though cannot be completely avoided. 2. Provide a platform for preliminary testings of the drug so that confirmed effective drugs in the...

The Department of Biotechnology has taken up programmes on application of biotechnology for conservation, micro propagation and production of secondary metabolites; biotransformation of intermediates into pharmaceutically important products and genetic enhancement of medicinal and aromatic plants. Biotechnological interventions have also been made for standardization of traditional herbal formulations, process development of therapeutically active phyto constituents, isolation and characterization of new therapeutic agents, genomics and metabolic engineering in medicinal and aromatic plants. A network of five national gene banks has been set up by DBT for conservation of important medicinal...

Lack of collaboration and coordination among scientists is the reason why poor regions of the world trail in crop biotechnology. Without proper coordination they cannot achieve targeted growth and cannot work together. 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. Currently, Africa is playing host to top...

Future for the biotech industry is great and booming everyday. The first step in this direction was already taken recently, when genetically modified tropical fish with new and brilliant colors appeared in pet stores. Yet this technology has to progress to become user friendly.Also the breeders of plant species see a big future in this technology. This business is time consuming and scientists spend their life doing new experiments everyday.Also with emergence of genetic engineering, one can breed new varieties of roses and orchids.Also, progress is continuing in field of human genome project and deciphering the codes of genetic codes. Domesticated biotechnology, will help in crop producti...

BIOINFORMATICS, BIO - MEDICINE, AND GENE MANIPULATIONS IN DRUG DEVELOPMENT AND FUTURE MEDICAL CARE. Bioinformatics is an emerging science which brings together the fields of Microbiology, Molecular Biology, Bio Technology and Genetics under the fold of computers and Software Advances in Computer Technology. The Bioinformatics is changing the entire concept, in future we may be compelled to view life and disease through the Chemistry of Genes. The facts about the human genome project were made public on the Internet by US department of energy and National Institute of Health, making the approach easier to any scientist or Doctor to learn the genomic science to utmost detail. 1. Basic finding...

Profound changes are occurring in the strategies that biotechnology -based industries are deploying in the search for exploitable biology and to discover new products and develop new or improved processes. The advances that have been made in the past decade in areas such as combinatorial chemistry, combinatorial biosynthesis, metabolic pathway engineering, gene shuffling, and directed evolution of proteins have caused some companies to consider withdrawing from natural product screening. In this review we examine the paradigm shift from traditional biology to bioinformatics that is revolutionizing exploitable biology. We conclude that the reinvigorated means of detecting novel organisms, no...
