A Switzerland based company called Evolva has developed a synthetic vanilla that is set to be released in 2014. The vanilla is created using a process of genetic engineering called synthetic biology.
Synthetic biology, according to a 2005 European Commission paper
is “…the engineering of biology… the synthesis of complex, biologically
based (or inspired) systems which display functions that do not exist
in nature.” Unlike the older science of splicing genes from different
species together, synthetic biology is seeking to create whole new
organisms that do not exist on earth.
Evolva’s synthetic vanilla is created by inserting computer coded DNA
into yeast. This new method of genetic engineering is called “natural”
by Evolva.
