That could allow the rapid development of new strains of yeast for manufacturing drugs and vaccines.
American foundations and African experts say that unless public health systems are strengthened in poor countries, the benefits of more AIDS drugs at lower prices could be undone by ineffective distribution or misuse, leading to the development of new strains of drug-resistant viruses.
There are several main hypervirulent strains as seen in, due to the commensal nature of N. meningitidis, and as seen in figure 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 & 8 and documented in many studies, the development of new strains is likely to continue.
That use results in the development of drug-resistant germs in or near livestock and heightens fears of new strains " 'jumping' between species" and causing illness in humans, the report said.
The development of microorganisms to ferment sugars released from lignocellulosic biomass, either through selection of new strains or by genetic engineering of traditional strains, has generally focused on generating maximum product yield from total available sugar.
The emergence of new strains, and the lack of cross-protection by existing vaccines, does not leave much time for vaccine development.
The development of new resistant strains of bacteria to current antibiotics has become a serious problem in public health; therefore, there is a strong incentive to develop new bactericides.
Foer details the copious amounts of pig shit sprayed into the air that result in great spikes in human respiratory ailments, the development of new bacterial strains due to overuse of antibiotics on farmed animals, and the origins of the swine flu epidemic, whose story has gripped the nation, in factory farms.
Therefore, the development of new vaccine strains is of urgently needed.
These viruses are naturally capable of genetic reassortment, which can lead to development of new viral strains with altered biological properties.
However, this type of solution is not widely recommended because there are reservations regarding how long the protective effect is, the development of new resistant strains, and its efficacy in such hyperendemic areas that have a high prevalence of undiagnosed cases.
