choice of optionals plantcell technology

This choice of optionals focusses on the biotechnological and cellular aspects of plants and plantcells. As a student, you will aim at topics like: are (genetically modified) refined plants or plant cells suitable for production and processing of larger amounts of "self-made" components as usual? Is it possible with help of genetic modification to produce "non-self" components in plants or plant cells? What level of purity can be obtained?
