Microbial genetics

Future research related to biodegradation of azo dyes should focus on both basic and applied aspects of the subject. Since bioremediation is an important tool in detoxifying and eliminating environmental contaminants, a thorough understanding of microbial genetics, biochemistry, and physiology is required. Attempts should be... 

Female laboratory rats seem to depend upon an intact vaginal bacterial flora to be olfactorily attractive to males. When given a choice in a four-arm maze, adult males spend more time with an untreated estrous female than with one whose vaginal bacteria had been killed by daily injections of an antibiotic (Merkx etal., 1988). Generally speaking, individual odors of rats have microbial, genetic, and dietary components (Schellink and Brown, 2000).

Dr. Ames was director of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences Center at U.C. Berkeley for twenty-three years, and he chaired the U.C. Berkeley Department of Biochemistry for six years, 1985-1989. Prior to that he was the Microbial Genetics section chief at the National Institutes of Health in Be-thesda, Maryland, a National Science Foundation senior fellow in the laboratories of Frances Crick in Cambridge, England, and F. Jacob in Paris, France, and a biochemist with the National Institutes of Health, where he began his career.

The appropriate level of regulatory scrutiny for field testing recombinant organisms should be based on our extensive experience with traditional agricultural practices. When safety Issues are examined from a scientific point of view. It can be concluded that the risk from recombinant organisms Is no different than the risk that has been associated with traditional plant or microbial genetic research and practices of many decades.
