The Pros & Cons of the Use of GMO Insulin
Rob Callahan
GMO insulin is also known as synthetic insulin, or human insulin. It is produced with genetically modified bacteria, instead of the traditional method that produces what is known as pork insulin. In this method, sometimes called natural insulin, the pancreas of a cow or pig is used to produce insulin.
What Is GMO Insulin?
Until the early 1980s, pharmaceutical insulin was extracted from the pancreas of cows or pigs, according to the International Diabetes Federation. Since that time, the process of attaching the human gene for insulin production to the DNA of the bacteria E. coli has been developed. Insulin produced from this newer method is known as GMO insulin, and genetically modified bacteria have become the most common source of pharmaceutical insulin. In addition to bacteria, baker's yeast is also a common template onto which the human insulin-producing gene can be attached.

Benefits of GMO Insulin
Because bacteria and yeasts reproduce more rapidly and with fewer resources than complex mammals, they can be grown at a lower cost than sources of pork or beef insulin. Their faster rate also negates the wait associated with the maturation of animal sources, and the space needed to support these specialized bacteria colonies is significantly smaller than that needed to raise livestock. The International Diabetes Federation considers the supply of insulin produced from bacteria to be unlimited, since it does not depend on the quantity and availability of bovine or porcine pancreases. The insulin produced this way is also identical to insulin produced naturally by the human pancreas.
The Disadvantages of GMO Insulin
The Society for Diabetic Rights states that a significant number of diabetics have experienced bad reactions to GMO insulin, and that some of these have resulted in death. Although GMO insulin poses a risk to some consumers of insulin, its comparatively greater availability and lower cost of production have prompted insulin manufacturers such as Eli Lilly to limit or disband production of pork or beef insulin. Diabetics who are unable to use GMO insulin find animal insulin more difficult to acquire. The Mayo Clinic website notes that a lack of insulin, which could result from this scarcity, exposes diabetics to additional problems, which include blindness, nerve damage and kidney damage.

Traces of Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria Have Been Found in Polluted City Air
DAVID NIELD
21 NOV 2016
New research shows polluted city air could be even more of a health risk than we thought, because it's been found to carry traces of drug-resistant bacteria that can't be treated by common antibiotics.
Scientists are now cautioning that city smog might be spreading the genetic material that makes viruses untreatable, and at this stage, it's not clear how much damage this could do in the world's most polluted cities.
Researchers from the University of Gothenburg in Sweden analysed 864 samples of DNA taken from humans, animals, and environments worldwide, looking for genes linked to antibiotic-resistant bacteria.
The results showed that samples taken from the Chinese capital Beijing – known for its extremely bad pollution – turned up a high level of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs).
"We studied only a small number of air samples, so to generalise, we need to examine the air from more places," explains lead researcher Joakim Larsson. "But the air samples we did analyse showed a wide mix of different resistance genes."
The research doesn't show whether the bacteria in Beijing's smog is actually alive – which would significantly increase the threat – but Larsson says it's "reasonable to believe that there is a mixture of live and dead bacteria, based on experience from other studies of air".
Particularly worrying is the fact that the study turned up genes resistant to carbapenems – the 'last resort' drugs given to counter difficult bacterial infections that haven't responded to other treatments.
While we don't know how serious the threat is just yet, the researchers write in their paper that there might be "vast sources" of unknown resistance genes hiding in polluted environments.
"This may be a more important means of transmission than previously thought," says Larsson.
As we treat our illnesses with antibiotics, bacteria and viruses modify themselves to become hardened against them, creating new microorganisms known as superbugs.
Right now, bacteria is evolving faster than our antibiotics can be adjusted, which is why it's vital that we understand more about how it spreads and reaches new groups of people.
If we could no longer use antibiotics in treatment, it would mean routine infections would become dangerous and potentially fatal, so scientists are scrambling to find alternative ways to fight these superbugs.
Larsson and his team, previously known for their work linking the discharge of antibiotic-contaminated water to increased bacterial resistance in India, are now turning their attention to sewage treatment plants in Europe to investigate the threat further.
Treatment plant employees will be given samplers to measure the composition of the air, while their gut bacteria, and that of nearby residents, will be studied too, to look for a link between the plants and airborne bacteria.
If we can understand more about how resistant bacteria spreads, we'll stand a better chance of trying to beat it – meaning it's yet another reason to work on cleaning up our cities.
The findings are published in Microbiome.

Shreyashree Sarkar, BSc. Honours Microbiology, University of Calcutta (2017)
Microbes have a optimum range of humidity for their survival in the air. This ranges from 10%-50%. So if the humidity increases or decreases most bacteria cannot survive unless it is a resistant strain.
Bacteria has the lowest survival rate in air due to several reasons-
The GMO BACTERIA found in Chinese SMOG was found not only to be METAL-MINERAL EATING GMO bacteria---but also ANTIBIOTIC RESISTANT.

[Characterizing Beijing's Airborne Bacterial Communities in PM2.5 and PM1 Samples During Haze Pollution Episodes Using 16S rRNA Gene Analysis Method].
[Article in Chinese]
Wang BY, Lang JD, Zhang LN, Fang JH, Cao C, Hao JM, Zhu T, Tian G, Jiang JK.
Abstract
During 8th-14th Jan., 2013, severe particulate matter (PM) pollution episodes happened in Beijing. These air pollution events lead to high risks for public health. In addition to various PM chemical compositions, biological components in the air may also impose threaten. Little is known about airborne microbial community in such severe air pollution conditions. PM2.5 and PM10 samples were collected during that 7-day pollution period. The 16S rRNA gene V3 amplification and the MiSeq sequencing were performed for analyzing these samples. It is found that there is no significant difference at phylum level for PM2.5 bacterial communities during that 7-day pollution period both at phylum and at genus level. At genus level, Arthrobacter and Frankia are the major airborne microbes presented in Beijing winter.samples.
At genus level, there are 39 common genera (combined by first 50 genera bacterial of the two analysis) between the 16S rRNA gene analysis and those are found by Metagenomic analysis on the same PM samples. Frankia and Paracoccus are relatively more abundant in 16S rRNA gene data, while Kocuria and Geodermatophilus are relatively more abundant in Meta-data. PM10 bacterial communities are similar to those of PM2.5 with some noticeable differences, i.e., at phylum level, more Firmicutes and less Actinobacteria present in PM10 samples than in PM2.5 samples, while at genus level, more Clostridium presents in PM10 samples. The findings in Beijing were compared with three 16S rRNA gene studies in other countries. Although the sampling locations and times are different from each other, compositions of bacterial community are similar for those sampled at the ground atmosphere. Airborne microbial communities near the ground surface are different from those sampled in the upper troposphere.

How Microbes Clean Up Our Environmental Messes
The contamination cleanup strategy called bioremediation--using naturally occurring or genetically modified microbes to clean up our messes—is gaining steam, as scientists devise new ways to use bugs against mercury, oil spills, radioactive waste and more.
By Mary Beth Griggs
Aug 29, 2011
Microbes are nature's ultimate garbage disposal, devouring the dead, decomposing and inert material that litters Earth's surface. They're so good at it, in fact, that humans have taken an increasing interest in coercing them to clean up our environmental messes.
The concept is called bioremediation, and it involves using organisms that either naturally love to eat contaminants or have been genetically altered to give them the taste for toxins. Scientists are designing or deploying microbes to purge sites of contaminants such as PCBs, oil, radioactive waste, gasoline and mercury, and new bioremediation research appears regularly.
Genetic Tinkering
For one study published recently in the journal BMC
Biotechnology, researchers at the Inter American University of Puerto Rico modified E. coli bacteria (a common lab bacteria) with genes that allowed the microorganisms to not only survive in mercury but to remove it from waste sites. The genes in question produce proteins called metallothionein and polyphosphate kinase that allow the bacterial cells to develop a resistance to mercury and to accumulate large amounts of the heavy metal within the organism, thereby isolating it.
"Mercury is really toxic, and there are no natural organisms that can bioremediate mercury," says Oscar Ruiz, one of the study's lead authors. However, there are a few organisms that make it more dangerous. They transform the ionic or elemental mercury, which is discharged from industrial sites such as coal-burning power plants, into the more toxic version, methylmercury. Methylmercury can accumulate in plants and animals, and is most toxic to those at the top of the food chain.
Ruiz's goal for his transgenic bacteria is for them to sequester mercury contamination before the natural bacteria have a chance to turn it into toxic methylmercury. The modified bacteria wouldn't be set loose in the wild, as there are strict government regulations about releasing genetically modified organisms into the environment. Instead, these bacteria would do their work in filters that can be brought to contaminated sites and used to filter the mercury out of water. It's possible they might even be able to recover the mercury for use in other industries. "Mercury is very important in many, many industrial applications," Ruiz says.
Giving Nature a Boost
Creating genetically modified microbes to do our dirty work is only really useful when dealing with contaminants like mercury, where there are no known natural bacteria capable of doing the job. In most other bioremediation cases, nature just needs a little bit of a helping hand.
Pollution-eating bacteria have gotten the most press at large oil spills, such as the Exxon Valdez and, more recently, the Deepwater Horizon disaster. Scientific entrepreneurs poured out of the woodwork, eager to contribute their oil-eating superbugs to the cleanup effort. But, in reality, the microbes that were already there had a head start. "Bioaugmentation in the open environment really isn't effective," says Kenneth Lee, a researcher with Canada's Department of Fisheries and Oceans who has extensive experience researching bioremediation of oils spills. Bioaugmentation is a type of bioremediation that involves adding organisms directly to the open environment. But microbes that aren't adapted to the environment die quickly, simply providing more nutrients for the indigenous bacteria to feed on. "That's an extremely expensive way to make fertilizer," says Terry Hazen, the head of the Center for Environmental Biotechnology at UC Berkeley.
Instead of adding organisms to the environment, often the best way to get rid of chemical pollutants is to help the bacteria already on the job. Take the Deepwater Horizon leak. Because of natural oil seeps on the Gulf of Mexico's seafloor, communities of microbes that can break down oil, or at least parts of it, exist there. Adding nutrients to the water near an oil spill can help grow these bacterial populations. And it works for things besides oil, too. Some of Hazen's early work showed that low doses of methane injected at contaminated sites can aid the growth of methanotrophs, organisms that love methane and produce enzymes capable of breaking down chlorinated solvents and up to 300 other compounds.
Break It Down
With a bacterial-based oil spill cleanup, there is an additional step beyond adding nutrients that give microorganisms a boost. During the Deepwater Horizon cleanup, for instance, responders dumped loads of chemical dispersants to try to break up the oil in the Gulf of Mexico. One benefit of such an action is that it breaks the oil down into pieces small enough for the bacteria to eat. "When bacteria attack oil they can only attack from the water-oil interface" Lee explains. When a spill breaks up, its surface area gets larger and the microbes have an easier time feasting upon it.
Much of the Deepwater Horizon oil disappeared faster than the earliest predictions suggested. So, though there is still cleanup to be done on the shore, and the full impact on the marine ecosystem may not be known for decades, the Gulf's microorganisms played a role in cleaning up part of the spill. And bioremediation methods, using both indigenous and genetically modified microbes, will continue to garner attention as a cost-effective way to clean up contamination.
What this article states as well is the fact that BACTERIA as a PHYLUM reproduce so rapidly that any GMO trait attached can very quickly mutate----disappear in generations being only a few years.
The ability of what was water-bound bacteria made GMO to EAT metals/chemicals in global factories obviously MUTATED to be able to live in SMOG AND AIR.

Traces of Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria Have Been Found in Polluted City Air

New research shows polluted city air could be even more of a health risk than we thought, because it's been found to carry traces of drug-resistant bacteria that can't be treated by common antibiotics.

No one mentions in these discussions what happens when people INHALE----or when these GMO METAL/MINERAL EATING AIRBOURNE BACTERIA get into LUNGS and/or are absorbed by SKIN. As we stated, the very LEAST concern would be that these GMO BACTERIA could live and FEED inside human body on the same METALS AND MINERALS are body needs.

Abstract
During 8th-14th Jan., 2013, severe particulate matter (PM) pollution episodes happened in Beijing. These air pollution events lead to high risks for public health. In addition to various PM chemical compositions, biological components in the air may also impose threaten. Little is known about airborne microbial community in such severe air pollution conditions. PM2.5 and PM10 samples were collected during that 7-day pollution period. The 16S rRNA gene V3 amplification and the MiSeq sequencing were performed for analyzing these samples. It is found that there is no significant difference at phylum level for PM2.5 bacterial communities during that 7-day pollution period both at phylum and at genus level. At genus level, Arthrobacter and Frankia are the major airborne microbes presented in Beijing winter.samples.
At genus level, there are 39 common genera (combined by first 50 genera bacterial of the two analysis) between the 16S rRNA gene analysis and those are found by Metagenomic analysis on the same PM samples. Frankia and Paracoccus are relatively more abundant in 16S rRNA gene data, while Kocuria and Geodermatophilus are relatively more abundant in Meta-data. PM10 bacterial communities are similar to those of PM2.5 with some noticeable differences, i.e., at phylum level, more Firmicutes and less Actinobacteria present in PM10 samples than in PM2.5 samples, while at genus level, more Clostridium presents in PM10 samples. The findings in Beijing were compared with three 16S rRNA gene studies in other countries. Although the sampling locations and times are different from each other, compositions of bacterial community are similar for those sampled at the ground atmosphere. Airborne microbial communities near the ground surface are different from those sampled in the upper troposphere.

How Microbes Clean Up Our Environmental Messes
The contamination cleanup strategy called bioremediation--using naturally occurring or genetically modified microbes to clean up our messes—is gaining steam, as scientists devise new ways to use bugs against mercury, oil spills, radioactive waste and more.

Microbes are nature's ultimate garbage disposal, devouring the dead, decomposing and inert material that litters Earth's surface. They're so good at it, in fact, that humans have taken an increasing interest in coercing them to clean up our environmental messes.
The concept is called bioremediation, and it involves using organisms that either naturally love to eat contaminants or have been genetically altered to give them the taste for toxins. Scientists are designing or deploying microbes to purge sites of contaminants such as PCBs, oil, radioactive waste, gasoline and mercury, and new bioremediation research appears regularly.
Genetic Tinkering
For one study published recently in the journal BMC
Biotechnology, researchers at the Inter American University of Puerto Rico modified E. coli bacteria (a common lab bacteria) with genes that allowed the microorganisms to not only survive in mercury but to remove it from waste sites. The genes in question produce proteins called metallothionein and polyphosphate kinase that allow the bacterial cells to develop a resistance to mercury and to accumulate large amounts of the heavy metal within the organism, thereby isolating it.
"Mercury is really toxic, and there are no natural organisms that can bioremediate mercury," says Oscar Ruiz, one of the study's lead authors. However, there are a few organisms that make it more dangerous. They transform the ionic or elemental mercury, which is discharged from industrial sites such as coal-burning power plants, into the more toxic version, methylmercury. Methylmercury can accumulate in plants and animals, and is most toxic to those at the top of the food chain.
Ruiz's goal for his transgenic bacteria is for them to sequester mercury contamination before the natural bacteria have a chance to turn it into toxic methylmercury. The modified bacteria wouldn't be set loose in the wild, as there are strict government regulations about releasing genetically modified organisms into the environment. Instead, these bacteria would do their work in filters that can be brought to contaminated sites and used to filter the mercury out of water. It's possible they might even be able to recover the mercury for use in other industries. "Mercury is very important in many, many industrial applications," Ruiz says.
Giving Nature a Boost
Creating genetically modified microbes to do our dirty work is only really useful when dealing with contaminants like mercury, where there are no known natural bacteria capable of doing the job. In most other bioremediation cases, nature just needs a little bit of a helping hand.
Pollution-eating bacteria have gotten the most press at large oil spills, such as the Exxon Valdez and, more recently, the Deepwater Horizon disaster. Scientific entrepreneurs poured out of the woodwork, eager to contribute their oil-eating superbugs to the cleanup effort. But, in reality, the microbes that were already there had a head start. "Bioaugmentation in the open environment really isn't effective," says Kenneth Lee, a researcher with Canada's Department of Fisheries and Oceans who has extensive experience researching bioremediation of oils spills. Bioaugmentation is a type of bioremediation that involves adding organisms directly to the open environment. But microbes that aren't adapted to the environment die quickly, simply providing more nutrients for the indigenous bacteria to feed on. "That's an extremely expensive way to make fertilizer," says Terry Hazen, the head of the Center for Environmental Biotechnology at UC Berkeley.
Instead of adding organisms to the environment, often the best way to get rid of chemical pollutants is to help the bacteria already on the job. Take the Deepwater Horizon leak. Because of natural oil seeps on the Gulf of Mexico's seafloor, communities of microbes that can break down oil, or at least parts of it, exist there. Adding nutrients to the water near an oil spill can help grow these bacterial populations. And it works for things besides oil, too. Some of Hazen's early work showed that low doses of methane injected at contaminated sites can aid the growth of methanotrophs, organisms that love methane and produce enzymes capable of breaking down chlorinated solvents and up to 300 other compounds.
Break It Down
With a bacterial-based oil spill cleanup, there is an additional step beyond adding nutrients that give microorganisms a boost. During the Deepwater Horizon cleanup, for instance, responders dumped loads of chemical dispersants to try to break up the oil in the Gulf of Mexico. One benefit of such an action is that it breaks the oil down into pieces small enough for the bacteria to eat. "When bacteria attack oil they can only attack from the water-oil interface" Lee explains. When a spill breaks up, its surface area gets larger and the microbes have an easier time feasting upon it.
Much of the Deepwater Horizon oil disappeared faster than the earliest predictions suggested. So, though there is still cleanup to be done on the shore, and the full impact on the marine ecosystem may not be known for decades, the Gulf's microorganisms played a role in cleaning up part of the spill. And bioremediation methods, using both indigenous and genetically modified microbes, will continue to garner attention as a cost-effective way to clean up contamination.
