Scientists have been generating pure, recombinant chymosin this way since 1990, and it has made the process of making cheese more efficient and even vegetarian friendly since the chymosin is ...

However, recombinant DNA of chymosin has been in use since 1990, and is genetically and structurally identical to the original enzyme, but can be produced in larger quantities and a lower cost.

The first two genetically engineered food products in the US were recombinant chymosin, or rennet (an enzyme used in cheese production), and recombinant bovine somatotrophin (BST), a growth ...

Modern humanity could not exist without biotechnology. The fact is that we all eat genetically-engineered foods. It's just the reality of modern life. There may be a very small number of people ...
