[Title] => DR. SATURNINA HALOS: Scientist steps out of her comfort zone to become an entrepreneur
[Summary] => There’s a reason why Dr. Saturnina Halos, one of the country’s best DNA experts and an eminent figure in the elite circle of local biotechnology, threw herself a few years back into a field quite alien to her - entrepreneurship. This spirited scientist who set up UP Diliman’s molecular and biotechnology department and is still chairperson of the agri-biotech committee of the Department of Agriculture, still dons her lab gown, but half of her day is now spent on overseeing Arnichem Corp. with her husband Dr. Ponciano Halos, also a respected agriculture scientist.

[Title] => Biotechnology to end use of costly pesticides — experts
[Summary] => A panel of Filipino scientists believes that there will eventually be no need for expensive pesticides among corn farmers following successful tests and subsequent cultivation of genetically modified, disease-resistant Bt corn in many farms in South Cotabato.
Led by Science and Technology Secretary Estrella Alabastro, the experts said Bt corn, which uses the soil bacterium Bacillus thuringiensis and was initially cultivated in 129 hectares of farms in South Cotabato in 2002, is resistant to borers, which destroy up to 80 percent of the corn produced in the country.
