CRISPR, Recombinant DNA, and LAMP-Based Platforms for Monkeypox: Emerging Tools for Diagnosis and Therapeutic Development
Abstract: Monkeypox, a zoonotic viral infection caused by the Monkeypox virus of the Orthopoxvirus genus, has recurred as a worldwide public health concern after recent outbreaks outside of its classical endemic areas in Central and West Africa. The resurgence has demanded a thorough reassessment of its epidemiology, mode of transmission, and clinical presentation. In light of these challenges, recombinant DNA technology (rDNA) has emerged as a candidate for developing vaccines, diagnostics, …

Recombinant Insulin
Abstract: Recombinant insulin, a revolutionary product of biotechnology, has transformed the landscape of diabetes treatment. Developed through genetic engineering techniques, recombinant insulin offers a safer, more consistent alternative to traditional animal-derived insulin. Its production involves the insertion of the human insulin gene into host organisms such as Escherichia coli or Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which serve as efficient factories for insulin synthesis. Recombinant insulin is used to treat diabetic patients who are allergic …
