How selective breeding and genetic engineering can solve the lack of human hormone?
Selective breeding can enhance the production of livestock or plants that naturally produce higher levels of hormones, allowing for a more sustainable source. Meanwhile, genetic engineering can be used to modify organisms, such as bacteria or yeast, to produce human hormones more efficiently and in larger quantities. By introducing specific genes responsible for hormone production, these modified organisms can serve as biofactories, reducing reliance on animal sources and ensuring a more consistent supply of hormones for medical use. Together, these techniques offer innovative solutions to address hormone shortages in healthcare.
