Beer Revalution by Guru Josiah Zayner Shine in the Dark

Due to the evolution of technology, the possibilities of designers babies will take on reality, CRISPR may be able to produce unbeatable crops, but Josiah Zayner says genetic engineering revolution makes beer that shines in the dark.

Mr. Zayner is a biohacker. Once as a synthetic biologist at NASA, he retired several years ago to bring science to the world. And now, Mr. Zayner wants to teach people how to brew genetically engineered beer.

His company - The Odin sells cheap DIY bio-supplies such as kits that operate yeast using the state-of-the-art genetic editing tool CRISPR. However, his dream is to make a world biohacking is common like making pickles or jams. The kit he selling that turns yellow yeast into red, but it is not appealing to stimulate a new generation of biohackers.

Because self-brewing is a hobby that is popular all over the world, a liquor production license is required in the case of producing alcoholic beverages. Mr. Zayner could think about selling a kit that teaches "how to operate a brewery yeast that glows in the dark.

In 2016 he released a kit for science-friendly for self-brewers. The kit contains everything you need to introduce jellyfish green fluorescent protein to all kinds of brewing yeasts. If you use beef yeast and brew beer, or Zayner's recommendation is distilled spirit, honey liquor, it means that beer that shines under black light.

"Mr. Zayner says, If you ask yourself what the future of the genetic design you imagine asking yourself, that was the world where you can operate my genes if you go to a local tattoo shop". "After that, yeast designed to invite friends, eat hamburgers with spicy tomatoes that I manipulated and grown in the garden so that there was nothing I had tasted before. I will pour the whole in with the beer I made."

In addition, in the product, there is a plan to sell a kit for anti-cancer beer using the yeast recombining the molecule called squalene, which was proposed in the shark's liver oil to reduce the risk of cancer. But not enough research has been done to investigate the impact of squalene on human health all over.

Mr. Zayner wishes to be interested in not only more people learning but also genetic manipulation actually, due to the ability to produce cool and touchable things.

" Zayner said, I realized that the genetic engineering revolution really begins when consumers can use genetic design to create what can be touched at home". "I noticed that yeast was the one that could start working."

Unfortunately for Mr. Zayner, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) also does not positive, as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) also sees the popularity of a population of biohackers enthusiastic about beer. I believe that he himself is not related to FDA violation because he sells pipettes, petri dishes, yeasts, and DNA instead of beer. It is doubtful,  FDA notes that the green fluorescent jellyfish protein that Zayner sells is classified as an FDA unapproved coloring matter? 

Mr. Zayner insists that the green fluorescent protein is not exactly a color and intends to continue selling it until stopped by FDA. Regulators and the scientific rulers are struggling to fight against the group of DIY scientists who try complex experiments in the garage like his project. Whether these experiments should be regulated or not, the discussion of how much it is incredible.

For Mr. Zayner's dark beer, it only glows under the black light, so it may not be as impressive as imagining SF.
