Dolly the sheep
Dolly the sheep was the first cloned mammal, born in 1996 in Scotland. Scientists took a cell from Dolly and developed it artificially so that it became an exact copy of her through somatic cell nuclear transfer. This involved transferring the nucleus of the adult cell into an egg cell that had its nucleus removed. The hybrid cell was stimulated to divide with an electric shock and implanted in a surrogate mother. Sadly, Dolly died in 2003 at the early age of six from lung disease and premature arthritis because her cells were already old when she was cloned. Cloning may help preserve endangered species and could be important for producing transgenic livestock in the future.
Cloning in mammals: Dolly the sheep
The document discusses the history of cloning research leading up to the creation of Dolly the sheep. Key experiments include the first demonstration of cloning in sea urchins in 1885, cloning in salamanders in 1902 and 1928 which showed the nucleus directs development, and the first mammalian cloning experiment producing a rabbit embryo in 1975. Dolly was the first mammal cloned from an adult cell, created in 1996 from a mammary gland cell, living until age 6 and giving birth to 6 lambs of her own. Studies of her clones provided insight into aging concerns. Advances since include stem cell research and understanding nuclear reprogramming.

It also discusses cloning technology such as embryo splitting, nuclear transfer, and the three main types of cloning - recombinant DNA cloning, reproductive cloning, and therapeutic cloning. The benefits and applications of cloning as well as techniques for transgenic animal production are also summarized.
Cloning Presentation
There are three main types of cloning: 1) DNA cloning which clones genes for uses like protein production and vaccine development, 2) reproductive cloning which produces genetically identical animals but risks are high inefficiency and potential harm, and 3) therapeutic cloning which produces stem cells for research on treating diseases but risks include killing embryos.
Dolly-The Cloned Sheep
Dolly was the first cloned mammal, a sheep born in 1996 in Scotland. She was cloned from an adult mammary cell using somatic cell nuclear transfer, involving removing the nucleus of an egg and replacing it with the nucleus of the donor cell. Dolly had three mothers - one provided the egg, one the donor cell DNA, and a third carried the cloned embryo. Dolly lived almost 7 years and gave birth to six lambs before being euthanized for progressive lung disease.

Somatic cell nuclear_transfer
Somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) is a cloning method that involves removing the nucleus from a somatic cell and placing it in an egg cell. The key steps are removing the nucleus from the organism being cloned and an egg cell, placing the organism's nucleus into the egg cell, stimulating the egg cell with a shock, and allowing it to divide. SCNT is mostly used for animal cloning and produced Dolly the sheep, but has limitations as it requires many attempts and does not perfectly transfer all DNA.

Stem cell culture
Stem cells can be derived from embryonic stem cells, adult stem cells, or induced pluripotent stem cells. Stem cells are undifferentiated cells that have the potential to differentiate into other cell types. There are several types of stem cells including totipotent, pluripotent, multipotent, oligopotent, and unipotent stem cells, which differ in their ability to differentiate. Stem cells offer potential for treating diseases but also raise ethical issues that require more research.
Animal cloning
This document discusses animal cloning, specifically somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT). It provides information on the history of cloning, animals that have been cloned, the SCNT process, challenges to successful cloning including reprogramming differentiated cells, and problems seen in cloned animals including embryonic and postnatal abnormalities. Applications of cloning such as restoring endangered species, generating transgenic animals, and gene knockout in farm animals are also covered.
Genetic Engineering and the future of Evolutiom
Genetic engineering will allow humans to direct their own evolution for the first time in history. By arranging the four bases of DNA - A, T, G, C - genetic instructions can be changed, altering organisms. CRISPR is a new, faster, cheaper, and more precise genetic engineering tool that can edit live cells and has reduced the cost of genetic engineering by 99%. If guided with caution, genetic engineering has the potential to cure diseases like HIV and cancer, extend human lifespans by borrowing genes from immortal species, and enhance humans for space travel by engineering plants and stronger bodies. However, there are also risks like the rise of "designer babies", dictators forcing genetic changes, and the creation of super soldiers

Cloning
The document discusses cloning and the cloning process. It defines cloning as processes used to produce genetically identical copies. It describes Dolly the sheep, the first mammal cloned from an adult cell. The process of cloning involves transferring the nucleus of a donor adult cell into an egg cell that has had its nucleus removed. The egg is then placed in a surrogate womb to mature. Cloning has produced genetically identical animals like cows, sheep, and mice. However, clones do not always look identical as environment also affects development.
Micromanipulation.pptx
Micromanipulation refers to procedures performed using microscopic instruments to manipulate eggs, sperm, and embryos. This includes techniques like partial zone dissection, subzonal insemination, intracytoplasmic sperm injection, somatic cell nuclear transfer, and gene transfer through microinjection. These techniques are used to increase fertilization and pregnancy rates, overcome male infertility, produce clones and chimeras, and enable genetic modification. They have helped advance reproductive biotechnologies and achieve major milestones like IVF births and the first animal clone. However, some argue that manipulating animals causes them suffering and poses ethical and environmental risks.
In vitro maturation and In vitro Fertilization
Immature eggs are retrieved from the ovary through aspiration or slicing and matured in the laboratory. The eggs are then fertilized in vitro through incubation with sperm for 8-10 hours. Finally, the presumed zygotes are cultured for 9 days to allow embryonic development. This process involves collection, transportation, in vitro maturation of eggs, in vitro fertilization through sperm treatment and incubation, and in vitro culture of the resulting embryos.
Cloning Powerpoint
Experiments in cloning date back to the 1950s with the successful cloning of tadpoles. The first cloned mammal was Dolly the sheep in 1996. Attempts at human cloning have occurred but with limited success and significant ethical concerns. While cloning may help treat disease or infertility, it also risks developmental issues and challenges ideas of what it means to be human. Religious and legal perspectives on cloning vary greatly due to its implications.
Genetic manipulation of animals.pptx
Genetically engineered animals are created through genetic manipulation techniques like DNA microinjection or cloning to introduce new traits. They are being engineered for agriculture and medicine, such as producing human proteins and antibodies in their milk or blood for treating diseases. While this technology aims to increase productivity and quality, it raises ethical concerns about interfering with animal integrity and welfare, as well as potential environmental impacts. Regulations require ensuring modified animals and their products are safe for animal and human consumption.
Ethical issues in animal biotechnology

Extrinsic concerns are also addressed, such as potential abuse of the technology and predicting future impacts.
Animal and human cloning
Therapeutic and reproductive cloning are two types of human cloning. Therapeutic cloning involves cloning cells for medical use and research, while reproductive cloning aims to clone an entire human. The history of human cloning began in the 1960s and major milestones include Dolly the sheep in 1996 and the first human stem cells from cloning in 2013. Methods like somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) remove the nucleus of an egg and replace it with the nucleus of a donor cell. While cloning holds promise for regenerative medicine, it also raises ethical issues around the moral status of embryos and mental/physical risks of cloning humans.
10. Scaling up of cell culture
Scale up means increasing the quantity or volume of cell culture. For animal cells, the scale up strategies are dependent upon cell types or i.e. whether the cells requires matrix for attachment and growth ( adherent cell culture) or grows freely in suspended form in aqueous media. The scaling up principle for adherent cells are just to increase surface area for attachment while for suspension culture is to increase culture volume. This presentation enlightens the reader about different methods of scaling up of cells culture. Readers are also provided with sample questions for better understanding

Cloning
This document summarizes the key aspects of cloning, including:
1) Cloning produces genetically identical organisms through artificial means like somatic cell nuclear transfer. Natural identical twins are a form of natural cloning.
2) Therapeutic cloning can be used to create patient-matched stem cells for research and potential future medical treatments by transferring the nucleus of a somatic cell into an egg cell.
3) Reproductive cloning aims to create a new organism but raises significant ethical concerns about undermining individuality and identity. The high failure rate of cloning also raises safety issues.
Cloning
Cloning involves replacing the nucleus of an unfertilized egg with the nucleus of a donor cell, creating a genetically identical copy. While cloning differs from sexual reproduction by using a single donor's genes, early experiments cloned sea urchins in 1894, salamanders in 1902, and Dolly the sheep in 1996 was the first mammal cloned from an adult cell. However, cloned animals often suffer health issues and low survival rates due to the experimental nature. While some seek pet cloning for $50,000 despite pet overpopulation, it treats animals as products and exploits grieving owners. Human cloning raises ethical concerns about physical harms, effects on families and society, and challenges the idea that humans are uniquely created in God
Power point presentation
This document discusses animal cloning. It defines animal cloning as obtaining complete animals from the somatic cells of another animal. The first cloned animal was Dolly the sheep, cloned from an adult somatic cell in 1996. Cloning can now be done for both reproductive purposes and to produce stem cells for medical research. Benefits include creating genetically identical animals for organ transplants or preserving endangered species. However, risks include mutations from donor cell errors and death from mitochondrial mismatches between donor eggs and somatic cells. Overall, cloning produces exact copies of animals but the process is expensive with a low success rate.
Unit 4
Cloning involves making an exact genetic copy of an organism. There are two main methods - artificial embryo twinning and somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT), the method used to create Dolly the sheep. While cloning technology could help treat diseases, there are also significant ethical concerns about human cloning including challenges to individuality, legal issues, and potential health risks to cloned individuals. Overall, most experts argue that human reproductive cloning should not be allowed given current scientific limitations and serious ethical issues. Therapeutic cloning using SCNT to derive stem cells for research is seen as more promising but also raises ethical debates.
What is cloning
Cloning creates genetically identical organisms. There are two main methods - artificial embryo twinning, which splits an early embryo into multiple embryos that develop separately, and somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT), which transfers the nucleus from a somatic cell into an egg cell with its nucleus removed. SCNT was used to create Dolly the sheep, the first mammal cloned from an adult cell. Both cloning methods produce embryos with two sets of chromosomes, but they differ in where those chromosome sets originate - artificial twinning uses one fertilized egg, while SCNT uses the nucleus from a somatic cell. Cloning an organism makes an exact genetic copy, while cloning a gene isolates and copies only a specific gene.
Reproductive clonning
Reproductive cloning involves transferring the nucleus of a donor adult cell into an egg cell that has had its nucleus removed. The cloned embryo is then implanted into a surrogate mother. Dolly the sheep, born in 1996, was the first mammal cloned using this method. The document discusses the process used to create Dolly, involving transferring the nucleus of an adult sheep cell into an enucleated sheep egg cell. While cloning has potential advantages like organ replacement, cloned animals often exhibit abnormalities and there are ethical concerns about cloning humans.
Cloning
Cloning involves creating genetically identical organisms through artificial means. There are two main types of cloning: artificial embryo twinning, which splits an embryo into two, and somatic cell nuclear transfer, where the nucleus of an adult cell is transferred into an egg cell. In 1996, Dolly the sheep was the first mammal cloned from an adult cell using somatic cell nuclear transfer. Cloning may have medical benefits like organ transplants but also risks like developmental failures and depriving clones of individuality.

Dolly the sheep was the first cloned mammal, born in 1996 in Scotland. She was cloned from the mammary gland cells of an adult Finn Dorset sheep using somatic cell nuclear transfer. The nucleus from the donor mammary cell was fused with an egg cell whose nucleus had been removed. Of 277 fused cells, 29 developed further after being implanted into surrogate mothers, resulting in the birth of Dolly. Dolly lived until 2003 and showed that cloning of an adult mammal is possible by nuclear reprogramming.

Authoring a personal GPT for your research and practice: How we created the Q...
Thematic analysis in qualitative research is a time-consuming and systematic task, typically done using teams. Team members must ground their activities on common understandings of the major concepts underlying the thematic analysis, and define criteria for its development. However, conceptual misunderstandings, equivocations, and lack of adherence to criteria are challenges to the quality and speed of this process. Given the distributed and uncertain nature of this process, we wondered if the tasks in thematic analysis could be supported by readily available artificial intelligence chatbots. Our early efforts point to potential benefits: not just saving time in the coding process but better adherence to criteria and grounding, by increasing triangulation between humans and artificial intelligence. This tutorial will provide a description and demonstration of the process we followed, as two academic researchers, to develop a custom ChatGPT to assist with qualitative coding in the thematic data analysis process of immersive learning accounts in a survey of the academic literature: QUAL-E Immersive Learning Thematic Analysis Helper. In the hands-on time, participants will try out QUAL-E and develop their ideas for their own qualitative coding ChatGPT. Participants that have the paid ChatGPT Plus subscription can create a draft of their assistants. The organizers will provide course materials and slide deck that participants will be able to utilize to continue development of their custom GPT. The paid subscription to ChatGPT Plus is not required to participate in this workshop, just for trying out personal GPTs during it.

The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defects
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.
The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically young
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.

We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.
Unlocking the mysteries of reproduction: Exploring fecundity and gonadosomati...
The pygmy halfbeak Dermogenys colletei, is known for its viviparous nature, this presents an intriguing case of relatively low fecundity, raising questions about potential compensatory reproductive strategies employed by this species. Our study delves into the examination of fecundity and the Gonadosomatic Index (GSI) in the Pygmy Halfbeak, D. colletei (Meisner, 2001), an intriguing viviparous fish indigenous to Sarawak, Borneo. We hypothesize that the Pygmy halfbeak, D. colletei, may exhibit unique reproductive adaptations to offset its low fecundity, thus enhancing its survival and fitness. To address this, we conducted a comprehensive study utilizing 28 mature female specimens of D. colletei, carefully measuring fecundity and GSI to shed light on the reproductive adaptations of this species. Our findings reveal that D. colletei indeed exhibits low fecundity, with a mean of 16.76 ± 2.01, and a mean GSI of 12.83 ± 1.27, providing crucial insights into the reproductive mechanisms at play in this species. These results underscore the existence of unique reproductive strategies in D. colletei, enabling its adaptation and persistence in Borneo's diverse aquatic ecosystems, and call for further ecological research to elucidate these mechanisms. This study lends to a better understanding of viviparous fish in Borneo and contributes to the broader field of aquatic ecology, enhancing our knowledge of species adaptations to unique ecological challenges.
Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvement
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.

ESR spectroscopy in liquid food and beverages.pptx
With increasing population, people need to rely on packaged food stuffs. Packaging of food materials requires the preservation of food. There are various methods for the treatment of food to preserve them and irradiation treatment of food is one of them. It is the most common and the most harmless method for the food preservation as it does not alter the necessary micronutrients of food materials. Although irradiated food doesn’t cause any harm to the human health but still the quality assessment of food is required to provide consumers with necessary information about the food. ESR spectroscopy is the most sophisticated way to investigate the quality of the food and the free radicals induced during the processing of the food. ESR spin trapping technique is useful for the detection of highly unstable radicals in the food. The antioxidant capability of liquid food and beverages in mainly performed by spin trapping technique.
