Transgenic Animals Examples Ppt

Transgenic models are more precise in comparison to traditional animal models for example the oncomouse with its increased susceptibility to tumor development enables results for carcinogenicity studies to be obtained within a shorter time-frame thus reducing the course of tumor development in experimentally affected animals.

Transgenesis is the process by which mixing up of genes takes place. Have been used as experimental animals for production of transgenic fish. Organisms containing integrated sequences of cloned DNA transgenes transferred using techniques of genetic engineering to include those of gene transfer and gene substitution are called transgenic animals.
