Synthetic human insulin was the first golden molecule of the biotech industry and the direct result of recombinant DNA technology. Currently, millions of diabetics worldwide use synthetic insulin to regulate their blood sugar levels. Synthetic insulin is made in both bacteria and yeast.

As the name suggests animal insulin is taken from the pancreases of animals, usually pigs (porcine or pork insulin) and cows (bovine or beef insulin). Some persons have allergic to such insulin. Now a days human insulin is used instead and it has no side effects.

There are several types of insulin such as short acting, intermediate acting and long acting. Your doctor will select the same according to the severity and duration of your blood sugar level.
