Dangers in genetic engineering

Genetic engineering has number of positive sides but as they say coin has two sides, likewise genetic engineering also has some following dangers

• While transferring of one gene to other there is a possibility that the function of the other gene may get disturbed and it can cause adverse affect to the life of the organism.

• The scientists perform the surgery of the DNA without properly understanding the mutations which are involved in it. These mutations can be harmful to our health and indirectly it will affect the environment.
  

• In genetic engineering number of materials are used which are not the part of the human food supply and since there is no long term testing of this food materials , there is a possibility that it may affect our health.

• There is a possibility of generating a high level of toxins in the food as genetic engineering can cause unexpected mutations in the organism which eventually will generate high amount of toxins.
  

• It is impossible to recall the genetic engineering bacteria, organisms or the viruses. This may lead to serious health problems to all the living creatures on the Earth.
