An unbelievable twist in time has happened in the world with the announcement of Synthetic DNA and the subsequent harvesting of said product to nearly anybody interested.  Being billed as the next big breakthrough in biology, this unforeseen development could cause huge alterations in the time code.

 

Life as we know it, augmented.

 

The medical community has been a buzz with the next big thing for years.  We are hardly aware of the problems that are created by some of the so-called medicines that we have created in the last 50 years.  Using radio active isotopes to kill a cell is like using a canon to kill garden slugs, a little misguided at best.   Yet now, we have an even greater threat to health.

 

Gene Synthesis is the next revolution is medicine, and is so far, responsible for creating a DNA vaccine against AIDS and is revolutionizing the world.   You thought you could make a cool APP?  Well, try this on for size.   Let\'s create a new form of life.   Gremlins be damned, we have experimental DNA to work with here that could in theory, create anything from a seed of chemicals.

Fast Simple Alternative to Traditional Cloning

A significant amount of time could be saved by cutting out the unnecessary steps from traditional cloning and moving into gene synthesis. Gene synthesis has become a cost effective, time- and resource-saving method for obtaining nearly any desired DNA construct with 100% accuracy. It outperforms conventional molecular biology techniques in terms of time and cost, while providing equivalent or better expression performance, and construct stability and quality. GeneArt® gene synthesis tools go beyond traditional synthesis and enable expression optimization and maximum performance.

Here is a glimpse into the transhumanist future of medicine:

It is a pdf you can click the link to find out what the future of eugenics will look like with a slick marketing campaign

When BASF, a long term chemical company with roots in the corporate fascist past, has advertisements like this, one can begin to worry.

BASF makes Chemistry

 
That's the problem, whether we like it or not, we will see how they create chemistry.

 

Now in the middle of the second decade of the twenty first century, we will see the synthetic biology we were promised.  The only thing is will this be a bio-ethical nightmare that we cannot close the lid on?
