But what are the exact modifications to make this possible? well, it is all about
genetic engineering. Biotechnology involves using living organisms to develop
or create products. Altering the genes of bacteria and yeast might accelerate all
the necessary processes to make the products. These microorganisms exist due
to fermentation, I think that in this process is where we will apply the genetic
engineering, maybe altering the genes of the yeast and bacteria will accelerate
their respiration, so on the moment when it is finally used to make the food, the
process will occur faster. I do not think humans might get harmed consuming
these products, as GM food is just as risky as eating normal food. However,
what might be good for one organism, might be harmful to another. The same
happens with humans, that’s why it is important to still take cautions.
On the other hand, this process might seem really easy, but not everyone is
qualified to do this process. That's why there are licenses that certify people that
they are allowed to do genetic engineering. This is not given to any person who
requests one. This licenses are extremely important. To get one there are
multiple tests to show the person is actually able to do genetic engineering and
will take all the responsibility that this process carries with, that’s why this is
meant to be safe, as only experts are allowed to do it. Companies that would like
to use GM yeast and bacteria, to produce their products, will need to have a
license too. Even though we are talking about microorganisms that do not create
controversy at all.
In conclusion, altering the bacteria and yeast will really bring thousands of
benefits. It is done through a simple but careful process that can only be done by
means of experts, so there are not many risks. This is process happens due to
biotechnology, which is fundamental for us human beings. This is in light of the
fact that thanks to this process, we are able to create the majority of the food we
consume. Besides, the use of GMOs can even help us to fix the damage we did
to the Earth.
