genetic engineering techniques such as recombinant DNA technology, where the gene encoding for insulin production was introduced into the bacterial DNA. These bacteria then use this genetic information to produce insulin, which can be harvested for diabetic treatment.
Well, the insulin a diabetic gets does not contain any bacteria. It is sterile. However, the insulin is made by bacteria, usually E. coli. Hope this helps! Some Stuff about the E.Coli Bacteria: • • The Bacteria E.coli used to produce insulin for those with diabetes • It's Inexpensive - compared with 1980 methods(extracting insulin from pigs etc.) • Large quantities of the modified bacteria are killed and insulin is extracted and purified. •The Bacteria E.coli used to produce insulin for those with diabetes
The human gene that codes for insulin is inserted into bacteria to produce insulin. The gene is typically inserted into a plasmid vector, which allows the bacteria to express the human insulin gene and produce insulin. This technique is used in biotechnology to create recombinant bacteria that can produce insulin for medical use.
No
The process involves inserting the human gene for insulin into a bacterial plasmid, which acts as a vector. The bacteria then replicates the gene and produces insulin protein. The protein is harvested, purified, and formulated into insulin for medical use.
Ummm...not really sure what you mean. Diabetes is not caused by bacteria so any bacteria would look the same. Diabetes 1 is caused by the body not producing enough insulin and Diabetes 2 is caused by the cells becoming resistant to insulin.

Insulin is produced using bacteria in a process called recombinant DNA technology. In this process, the gene for human insulin is inserted into the DNA of bacteria, such as E. coli. The bacteria then produce insulin as they grow and multiply. The insulin is harvested and purified for use in treating diabetes.

bacteria itself is not the treatment. we use the bacteria to produce insulin, we do so by inserting the gene into their plasmids and trigger them to produce the insulin. the insulin is extracted and used.
No
Yes. In fact, currently insulin manufacturers worldwide use transgenic (recombinant) bacteria to produce insulin efficiently.
Bacteria can be genetically modified to produce human insulin, which can then be harvested and used as a treatment for individuals with diabetes. This process involves inserting the gene for insulin production into the bacteria's DNA, allowing them to produce insulin in large quantities.

Genetic engineering of the bacteria.
Insulin is a protein secreted in pancreas.
