Description

Transgenic Organisms and Biosafety by Erwin R. Schmidt, Thomas Hankeln Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description Gene/biotechnology and the broad use of genetically modified organisms is rapidly developing into a commercial enterprise. Frequently quoted potential hazards are the phenomena of "gene escape" and "genetic pollution", meaning the very interesting question of natural (horizontal) gene transfer. Publisher Description The book contains original articles on research about the stability, mobility and expression of transgenic DNA in genetically modified organisms under the aspects of biosafety and evolution. It will be of interest to people working in academic institutions, industry and authorities involved in gene technology and the assessment of biosafety in genetically modified organisms. The book contains a number of examples demonstrating that (horizontal) gene transfer is a probable event and that instability and inactivation of transgenic DNA occurs frequently under certain circumstances. The book contains also articles giving a more general view of transgene technology, so it might also be of interest to readers like journalists or people involved in the public debate on biosafety.

  1. Seller sent me the wrong book, but the book they sent sounded interesting enough for me to keep it. I still contacted the seller and communication was fast and professional. They apologized for sending me the wrong book and said I could return it for a refund. I told them that I liked the book they sent me and wanted to keep it. They were happy. Told them thank you and happy new year. People make mistakes, but the fact that this seller was quick and professional and apologized made a difference.

  2. The basket is perfectly what I ordered and as listed. It came in the factory packaging and was perfect upon delivery. Thank you postal service lol. The delivery took way longer than listed though, it was listed to come in a week from purchase, but took a whole month. I had some concerns at first, but communication with the company was top notch and they were very professional and answered most of my questions satisfyingly. Just prepare for a longer wait than listed, but I got what I bought lol.

  3. The two new out-of-print books I ordered were exactly as described and shipped promptly. I did ask the seller's support person (an AI chatbot, I think) to be sure to package the items carefully, and "he" said that he'd make that request of the shipping department. I knew this was hooey, and as I expected, the books were shipped in nothing but a padded paper mailer, no other protection. I got lucky, no damage, but don't bother making special requests of this seller.
