Its first attempt to develop genetically engineered grass ended disastrously for Scotts Miracle-Gro Co. The grass escaped into the wild from test plots in Oregon in 2003, dooming the chances that the government would approve the product for commercial use. Yet Scotts is once again developing genetically modified grass that would need less mowing, be a deeper green and be resistant to damage from the popular weedkiller Roundup. But this time the grass will not need federal approval before it can be field-tested and marketed. Scotts and several other companies are developing genetically modified crops using techniques that either are outside the jurisdiction of the Agriculture Department or use new methods like genome editing that were not envisioned when the regulations were created. The department has said, for example, that it has no authority over a new herbicide-resistant canola, or over a corn that would create less pollution from livestock waste, or switch grass tailored for biofuel production, or an ornamental plant that glows in the dark. The trend alarms critics of biotech crops, who say there can be unintended effects of genetic modification, regardless of the process. "They are using a technical loophole so that what are clearly genetically … Continue reading →

'Genetic engineering' or genetic manipulation as it should properly be called, relies essentially on the ability to manipulate molecules in vitro. Most biomolecules exist in low concentrations & as complex, mixed populations which it is not possible to work with effectively. This problem was solved in 1970 using the molecular biologist's favourite bug, Escherichia coli , a normally innocuous commensal occupant of the human gut. By inserting a piece of DNA of interest into a vector molecule, i.e. a molecule with a bacterial origin of replication, when the whole recombinant construction is introduced into a bacterial host cell, a large number of identical copies is produced. Together with the rapid growth of bacterial colonies all derived from a single original cell bearing the recombinant vector, in a short time (e.g. a few hours) a large amount of the DNA of interest is produced. This can be purified from contaminating bacterial DNA easily & the resulting product is said to have been 'cloned'. Most vector molecules were originally derived from one of two sources: Vector molecules & cloning are not the only contribution which microorganisms have made to genetic manipulation. The actual task of altering the DNA at a molecular level … Continue reading →

Automotive engineering is a branch of engineering that studies how to design, create and develop the means of land transportation are using the machine, especially motorcycles, cars, buses and trucks. Automotive engineering combines elements of knowledge of mechanics, electricity, electronics, safety and the environment as well as mathematics, physics, chemistry, biology and management.The branches of the automotive engineering include:Planning (product or design)Development (development)Production (manufacturing)Maintenance (maintenance)In Indonesia currently highly developed branch is generally about care and maintenance of cars and motorcycles.In automotive engineering, control systems existing land transport equipment is a must. The system comprises several main systems and dozens of subsystems. The system can be grouped:Engine (engine)Combustion engine (internal combustion engine).The fuel system (fuel system).Fuel tank.Fuel pump.Carburetor or fuel injection system.Ignition system (ignition system).Air intake system in the combustion chamber (intake system).Combustion products exhaust system (exhaust system).Cooling system (cooling system).Lubrication system (lubricating system).Wheel balance system (spooring balancing)Move power (power train).Transmission system (transmission system).Driving circuit (drive train).Transfer case (for 4-wheel drive)The driving end (final drive)Wheel (wheel)The steering system (steering system).The suspension system (suspension system).The brake system (brake system).Bodi.The electrical system (electrical system).The main fields of technologyfieldBuilding and ConstructionCity and Regional Planning Techniques Acoustic Engineering Mechanical Engineering Safety Engineering architecture building maintenance … Continue reading →
