Synthetic Biology: Risks and Prospects
https://doi.org/10.21055/0370-1069-2014-3-5-10
Abstract
New area of biological studies that goes under general name of “synthetic biology” is a next step in the development of gene engineering associated with design and construction of unique biological systems with “preset” functions and properties, having no natural analogues. Nowadays synthetic biology is a source of innovations that offer solution to a number of global problems facing the humanity, including production of artificial genome-based multi-diagnostic panels, medicinal preparations, synthetic vaccine, etc. The process of unnatural life form creation requires conduction of monitoring both on the international and national scales using advanced system of biological risk assessment.
