Record 2 2002-04-26

English

Subject field(s)
  • Biotechnology
  • Mammals
CONT

The success of this cell-based prototype system has encouraged Nexia to continue the scale up of manufacturing spider silk protein within its transgenic BELE(Breed Early, Lactate Early) goat system.

OBS

BELE goats are year-round breeder ... Males are sexually active as early as 3 mo, and females are fertile at 3 to 6 mo. This early maturity compresses the generation interval required to generate a production herd. As a result, when using the BELE goat system, the recombinant protein of interest, purified from the milk, is available sooner.

PHR

BELE goat, goat model, goat system, system.

Les applications vont des dispositifs médicaux de fermetures de plaies aux prothèses des ligaments, en passant par des fibres industrielles et les gilets pare-balles [...]
