@cjap2011 Excuse me but where did I mention "cruelty" in my comment? Either way "reports" are full of crap as its the vivisection lobbies that write them up.

@ShroedingerWatcher You're a bit misinformed..
Just recently, a report was published. They used GFP to dye white blood cells in mice, and could track where the cells migrated to, particularly in the lymph nodes, as well as their response to scratches and cuts. The mice are treated with respect, and actually live quite happy lives.

Comment on video:
Old, repetitive, useless "research". Helps none, aids none, convinces no one...minus laymen vivisectors or "animal researchers who actually believe people have been cured from this.

Highly doubtful it would have any effect at all, given that there needs to be a source of UV present for the effect to work. Besides, this is a prey animal, glowing in the dark probably would weed itself out of the gene pool pretty quickly even if it didn't slightly increase the caloric expense of life for the mice.

Ah I suppose that's not as bad then. Still is weird. I hope they don't end up selling them as pets though because you don't know what effect these guys would have on wild populations if one escaped.

You are "pinky" and they are green - what is wrong?
mirekrybaltowski 4 years ago
I don't glow pink though :P
pinkygirl1999 4 years ago
:-) I am sure You not. Anyway, GFP mice are very useful in research on many serious disease. I work on Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura. Without such a basic research people would still die because of diabetes. Greetings.

Ah, I thought they did it like to sell as pets like them Glofish. I understand research is beneficial to us but what about the mice? does it hurt them or is the colour gene added to the mother's egg before furtalization?
pinkygirl1999 4 years ago
Yessss, gene is added before :-) Don't worry.
