| deadly and life taking diseases and has become the | | | | demand by biotechnological plants and other |
| savior of mankind. Using several recombinant and | | | | pharmaceutical manufacturing industries. |
| therapeutic proteins, biotechnological plants are | | | | Each and every living organism has therapeutic |
| manufacturing medicines that can cure many diseases | | | | characteristics and can be potentially used for the |
| effectively. These salutary proteins called as biological | | | | manufacture of medicines and other health care |
| medicating agents are extracted from various plant | | | | products. But only few of them are available. Among |
| and animal resources that have the capacity to heal | | | | the available ones, bacteria Escherichia coli are found |
