China Creates Worlds First Genetically Modified Cow Yay! Now the world has beefy abominations. Chinese scientists have created the worlds first genetically modified cow that can give milk rich in Omega-3 fatty acid, Xinhua reported. œTwo embryo-cloned and genetically-modified dairy cows were born June 23 last year. One of the cows has been found to have Omega-3 fatty acid level 10 times higher than a normal cow, said Li Guangpeng, head of the Biological Technology Laboratory at Inner Mongolia University. œWe did not announce the birth of the cows until now because it has taken time to check the cows effective genetic traces, Li said¦ He said it takes 14-15 months for a cow to become sexually mature, and another nine months to produce milk. The cows have been fed with normal cow feed. Dubbed a œgood fat, Omega-3 is an essential fatty acid necessary for human health. But it cannot be made by the human body. It is abundant in walnuts and cold water fish like herring, mackerel and sturgeon. LINK Share ThisSubscribedel.icio.usFacebookRedditStumbleUponTechnorati
