Chapter 17.4, Problem 1CC
Summary Introduction
A collection of the total genomic DNA from a single organism is called a genomic library. In the genomic library, the DNA is stockpiled in a population of identical vectors. Each of them carries a different insert of DNA. The genomic library is constructed by cleaving the genome of an organism into many fragments. Each of the fragments is cloned into a vector in order to synthesize a unique recombinant plasmid.

- A negligence action was brought by a mother against a hospital on behalf of her minor daughter. It alleged that when the mother was 13 years of age, the hospital negligently transfused her with Rh-positive blood. The mother's Rh-negative blood was incompatible with and sensitized by the Rh-positive blood. The mother discovered her condition 8 years later during a routine blood screening ordered by her healthcare provider in the course of prenatal care. The resulting sensitization of the mother's blood allegedly caused damage to the fetus, resulting in physical defects and premature birth.
