Bacteriophage Therapy – A Revolutionary Approach Towards Multi-Resistant Bacteria

Roots Analysis

Bacteria plays a crucial role in maintaining the ecosystem balance. However, there are few species of bacteria that can cause several infectious diseases ( such as strep throat, salmonellosis, tuberculosis, whooping cough ). The overuse of antibiotics has resulted in the emergence of multi-drug-resistant bacteria.

How Nanobodies from Cormac the Llama Could Prevent COVID-19 Infection

XTalks

Owing to their size, they can be grown in bacteria as opposed to larger animal or human cells, making them easier and cheaper to produce. These regions play a crucial role in the detection of antigens on viruses, bacteria and other pathogens. The study was led by neuroscientists Thomas J. “TJ” TJ” Esparza, BS, and David L.

Maternal Antibodies: How Allergies Can be Passed from Mothers to Children

XTalks

It has long been known that mothers greatly influence the development of the growing fetus by not only providing nutrients through the placenta, but also a growing list of biological elements including beneficial antibodies, gut bacteria and now, allergies. They reported their findings last week in the journal Science.

Roche launches three respiratory test panels on cobas 6800/8800 Systems in CE markets to help identify multiple pathogens with overlapping symptoms in patients

The Pharma Data

Respiratory infections are caused by a good sort of pathogens, like influenza viruses, respiratory syncytial virus, parainfluenza viruses, metapneumovirus, rhinovirus, enterovirus, coronavirus and adenovirus, and other bacteria pathogens. Open channel assays may include IVD assays, also as routine lab developed tests (LDTs).

Rising Demand for DNA and Gene Cloning  Service Providers

Roots Analysis

These clones can be manipulated and mutated in vitro to alter the expression and function of a protein. This has enabled several researchers to study genetic disorders more precisely and closely. The freedom to manipulate the genetic material and adulterate human species may lead to adaptive malfunctions.

Biologics – The Next Step in Revolutionary Medication

Roots Analysis

It is worth mentioning that in vitro gene expression requires a suitable host for the production of a specific gene product. Notably, biologics have higher success rates than conventional small-molecule drugs owing to lesser off-target toxicity of biologics, which is one of the key reasons of failures in small molecule drugs development.
