Transgenic Animals Mice Ppt. Transgenic technology has led to the development of. Transgenic animals is the property of its rightful owner.
The only curre nt routine use of transgenic animals, p rimarily mice, is in the area of human disease research. Clipping is a handy way to collect important slides you want to go back to later. Transgenic mice have continued to rise in popularity and are featured in countless scientific papers.
Mouse is the most preferred mammal for studies on gene transfers due to its many favourable features like short oestrous cycle and gestation period, relatively short generation time, production of several offspring per pregnancy (i.e., litter), convenient in vitro fertilization, successful culture of embryos in vitro, etc.
The production of transgenic animals has focused mainly on producing models (e.g., the mouse) for basic and medical research. At first, the level of scientific inquiry was driven by the need to establish the model. There also exist transgenic rats, sheep, rabbits, pigs, cow, and fish. You just clipped your first slide!
