  • Description: "In trying to increase the food production efficiency and health of animals, the livestock and pharmaceutical industries have been looking beyond traditional approaches, such as diet improvements, selective breeding programs, and drug development. Advanced forms of assisted reproductive technologies, new approaches to making and targeting drugs, and novel methods to alter the genetic makeup of animals are being used to unlock secrets into faster growing livestock, tastier and more healthful food products from animals, more environmentally friendly farming, and even the use of animals to produce human drugs and organs...The Center for Veterinary Medicine in the Food and Drug Administration is keeping up-to-date on these developments to ensure the safety of food and other products as well as the health of animals developed through these technologies." (FDA Veterinarian) Advancements made in new animal technologies are outlined.
