Genetic biotechnology is one of the mainstream technologies in the future, so mastering genetic biotechnology is particularly critical.

With the development of science and technology, genetic weapons will gradually emerge, becoming more terrifying weapons than nuclear bombs in the future!

Genetic weapons, also known as genetic warfare agents, are another development direction of modern new concept weapons. Genetic weapons use advanced genetic engineering technology to synthesize a specific gene in pathogenic bacteria or viruses through genetic recombination according to people's needs, and then artificially design or even synthesize organisms or viruses that do not exist in nature! ! !

Among the genetic weapons, there is a weapon called "racial genetic weapon", also known as "race bomb", which is a genetic weapon aimed at a specific ethnic group or ethnic group, that is, it is only effective for a specific gene of a specific race, and is effective against other races. Completely harmless, it can be called an artifact of the war of genocide!

Some are engaged in the research of genetic weapons, and naturally some are engaged in the protection of genetic weapons. Some countries have started research on biological warfare agent protection measures as early as the 1980s, and have developed a variety of vaccines to prevent biological weapons, referred to as "gene vaccines"!

Henry has seen a news in his previous life. In 1997, US Secretary of Defense Cohen ordered that from that year, all active and reservists in the United States must be vaccinated with genetic vaccines as required, and all of them should be vaccinated before 2003! In May 1998, Clinton ordered to strengthen the stockpiles of vaccines and antibiotics against biological and chemical warfare to cope with possible genetic and biological warfare.

In addition to the United States, countries around the world are conducting research on genetic weapons and genetic vaccines.

In order to prevent the world from being destroyed, in order to maintain world peace, and to carry out love and true evil... In 1998, the spirit of the "International Declaration on the Human Genome and Human Rights" approved by the United Nations General Assembly reached a global scope to limit The use of genetic technology, and an ethical convention and agreement that completely prohibits the development of genetic weapons.

Of course they do!

Countries around the world are still vigorously developing genetic weapons. At the same time, each country is also studying the genetic code of its own nation as soon as possible, striving to identify the specificity and susceptibility genes as soon as possible, and using bioengineering technology to develop effective biological agents and genetic vaccines. Improve and enhance the genetic resistance of the nation.

Genetic weapons are not as easy to detect as missiles. It could be a bottle of potion that could be thrown into a river to poison it; it could be airborne to infect others; it could be genetically modified food. If you eat it, it will harm human genes.

Genetic weapons are hard to guard against, and not easy to crack. Think about it, the human body has 3 billion base pairs. How to crack this... Only the maker of the genetic weapon knows the genetic code!

Therefore, in-depth research on genes can be beneficial to invincible in the future.

One of the meanings of the existence of the Gene Umbrella Company is that it does not seek to hurt others, but seeks to protect itself and develop genetic vaccines. "Hundreds of poisons do not invade"! certainly. Annoying Henry, don't mind firing a genetic weapon or two in the past!

At present, in addition to being widely used in medical treatment, genetic technology has also made achievements in agriculture.

Are genetically modified seeds and genetically modified foods harmful to humans? Harmful or harmless depends on the situation and cannot be generalized.

If there are no genes that are harmful to humans in genetically modified foods, they are naturally harmless.

If there is a genetic weapon designed for a certain race and added to genetically modified food, then it is conceivable. What happens when people of this race take genetically modified foods! It may be to weaken the physique, it may reduce the IQ, it may also kill the sperm, and it may even affect the development of the next generation, etc...

The genes in the genetically modified food are so complicated, and each gene can be well understood. Do you understand its function? Therefore, even if it is sent for inspection, the official organization may not be able to find out if there is any problem! However, can't find out. Just no problem?

As for whether there is a problem with this, the clearest person must be the manufacturer of genetically modified food or genetically modified seeds!

With the development of science and technology and the advancement of the times, the traditional agricultural planting system has been unable to meet the food and nutrition needs of the growing world population. Genetically modified technology can increase the yield of crops, which is obviously a great technology for the benefit of mankind! There is no doubt that more and more countries around the world will import genetically modified food. Because you don't import genetically modified food, you will not be full or even starve to death!

About 90% of corn, 90% of cotton, and 94% of soybeans planted in the United States will be genetically modified varieties, and China will import the most!

Technology is not good or bad, but depends on who is using it.

The most prestigious GM seed company in the United States is Monsanto, a global seed giant and the world's number one seed provider. In the entire field of agricultural research, Monsanto occupies almost half of the country! Of course, it's not so hoisted yet.

If Henry wants to eat safe food, he can grow non-GMO seeds in his estate. However, when genetically modified food penetrates into various industries, who can guarantee that anything they eat is completely natural?

There is nothing wrong with genetically modified food. If you understand that the genes in genetically modified food will not cause harm to the human body, it is completely edible! Even more nutritious foods can be developed using genetically modified technology to enhance physical fitness or intelligence!

The reason why Henry pays attention to Monsanto is mainly because they are making too much noise!

Monsanto is buying biotech companies and seed companies on a spree in order to enter the genetically modified seed market. As a biotech giant, how could Gene Umbrella not respond to Monsanto's move?

Henry immediately sent people to investigate Monsanto.

Monsanto was a chemical company in its early years before moving into fields as diverse as biotech and pharmaceuticals. In 1982, Monsanto scientists changed the genes of plant cells for the first time in human history, achieving a major breakthrough in the field of biotechnology! Since then, Monsanto has decided to undertake a strategic transformation and shift its focus to the field of biotechnology.

After reading the information, Henry laughed and said, "Monsanto is very courageous. A few years ago, it launched a seed war with Pioneer Seed Company, the world's number one seed company, and it was a complete failure. After realizing that there is no seed company under its own After the short board of the company, it immediately launched the acquisition action! Try to buy a large number of seed companies, and then combine their own biotechnology to launch genetically modified seeds!"

Henry has seen many discussions about genetically modified food in his previous life, especially many Chinese believe that genetically modified food is harmful to human health. Then, for example, even the European Union prohibits the consumption of genetically modified food, which shows that genetically modified food is indeed harmful to the human body!

The more Henry studied genes, the more he felt that technology had two sides. Use it for righteousness, and use it for evil it is evil.

Henry thought to himself that in order to allow himself to eat safe food in the future, the acquisition of Monsanto should be imperative. Moreover, China is a major importer of genetically modified food. It has its own control of Monsanto, at least not allowing harmful genetically modified food to enter China.
