Scientists continue to put amaze animal experiments. At this time, on the altar of science laid the dog, which made South Korean genetics glow in the dark.
The dog entered a special gene that is responsible for production in the body fluorescent (glowing) of the protein. It is activated immediately, but only after the animal will take a sufficient dose of the antibiotic doxycycline. Thus, the dog can be turned on and off like a lamp. After eating doxycycline Tegon weak green glow.
In total, work on the creation and experimentation Tegon took about four years. Geneticists have spent on the project 3, 2 billion won ($ 3 million). Although Tegon was born two years ago, the results of Genetics reported just the other day, because it took a long time to carry out all necessary checks.
