Transgenic plant-derived pharmaceuticals - the practical approach?

Akira Yano, Masataka Takekoshi

    Expert Opinion on Biological Therapy
    |October 6, 2004
    PubMed
    Summary

    Creating a biopharmaceutical industry using transgenic plants offers global benefits but requires strict regulations. Utilizing non-food crops and simpler systems may be more feasible for widespread adoption, especially in developing nations.
