What is DNA cloning?
When DNA is extracted from an organism, all its genes are obtained
In gene (DNA) cloning a particular gene is copied (cloned)
![Page 6: Melaka Institute of Biotechnology](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061615/553e5b4b4a795978338b4925/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
• To "clone a gene" is to make many copies of it• Act of making many identical copies of gene• Gene can be an exact copy of a natural gene • Gene can be an altered version of a natural gene

By 1953,
Crick and Watson
had built a model which incorporated all known features of DNA, and
proposed the double helix structure which is
commonly referred to as the Watson-Crick model of
DNA.
Crick, Watson and Wilkins were awarded Nobel prize
for this work in 1962.

INTRODUCTION
What is plant Tissue Culture???
Plant tissue culture is a practice used to propagate plants under sterile conditions, often to produce clones of a plant
![Page 50: Melaka Institute of Biotechnology](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061615/553e5b4b4a795978338b4925/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
INTRODUCTIONPlant tissue culture relies on the fact :
Any plant cells have the ability to regenerate a whole plant(totipotency).
Parts of plants can be used to generate a new plant are such as :
Single cells Protoplasts (plant cells without cell walls ) Pieces of leaves. Roots Stem
Explants was given with the required nutrients and plant hormones included on culture media in order to propagate.
![Page 51: Melaka Institute of Biotechnology](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061615/553e5b4b4a795978338b4925/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
OBJECTIVETo produce/propagate :
The exact copies of plants which have desirable traits.
Quickly mature plants.Multiples of plants in the absence of
seeds or necessary pollinators to produce seeds.
Whole plants from plant cells that have been genetically modified.
Plants with greatly reduced chances of transmitting diseases, pests, and pathogens.
Plants which have very low chances of germinating and growing, i.e.: orchids

Toxicology (from the Greek words toxicos and logos) is the study of the adverse effects of chemicals on living organisms.
It is an inter-disciplinary science that integrates the principles and methods of many fields: chemistry, biology, pharmacology, molecular biology, physiology and medicine. It study the symptoms, mechanisms, treatments and detection of poisoning, especially the poisoning of people.
![Page 76: Melaka Institute of Biotechnology](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061615/553e5b4b4a795978338b4925/html5/thumbnails/76.jpg)
Risk assessment - attempts to determine, probabilistically, outside the laboratory, the likelihood of an adverse effect based on a particular exposure scenario.
Regulatory toxicology relies on risk assessment and experimental data to determine the risk and benefits, or the costs and benefits of exposure to certain chemicals, to determine whether such chemical will be allowed in the public sphere and to what extent its use and exposure will be regulated.
![Page 77: Melaka Institute of Biotechnology](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061615/553e5b4b4a795978338b4925/html5/thumbnails/77.jpg)
Clinical toxicology involves the application of toxicological principles within a diagnostic setting, usually to determine whether a presenting adverse effect or disease or injury is due to some type of chemical exposure.
Forensic toxicology focuses on medical-legal aspects of chemical exposure and toxic injury. Evaluation of analytical chemistry techniques and measurements, and testimony of conclusions and opinions in courts of law encompass the activity of this specialized field of toxicology.
Aquatic toxicology is the study of the effects of manufactured chemicals and other anthropogenic and natural materials and activities on aquatic organisms at various levels of organization, from subcellular through individual organisms to communities and ecosystems.
![Page 78: Melaka Institute of Biotechnology](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061615/553e5b4b4a795978338b4925/html5/thumbnails/78.jpg)
Chemical toxicology is the study of the adverse effects of chemicals on living organisms.
Ecotoxicology is the integration of toxicology and ecology or, as Chapman (2002) suggested, “ecology in the presence of toxicants”. It aims to quantify the effects of stressors upon natural populations, communities, or ecosystems.
Environmental toxicology and its sister-subject ecotoxicology refers to the scientific study of the potential effects upon organisms of anthropogenic compounds released into the natural environment.

Challenges Wise use of chemicals is an essential component of the
high standard of living we enjoy. The challenge to toxicologists is to ensure that we are not endangering our health or the environment with the products and by-products of modern and comfortable living.
As a career, toxicology provides the excitement of science and research while also contributing to the well-being of current and future generations.

Opportunities With the increase in our health consciousness, as
well as concern for our environment, a wide and growing variety of career opportunities exist in toxicology.
Attractive Salaries and Professional Advancement The demand for well-trained toxicologists continues
to increase. Increasing specialization in the science of toxicology now provides the toxicologist with a competitive advantage over chemists, engineers, biologists or other scientists without specialized training in toxicology.
