20 years into the future, the ILDD will aim to destroy viruses by disrupting the lysogenic cycle of the virus. The lysogenic cycle of the virus, one of the two reproductive cycles of a virus, involves the replication of a DNA molecule and the attachment of the virus to its host cell. The ILDD’s structure consists of an outer shell and the interior components. The outer shell would dissolve into the blood of the body 48 hours after the initial injection. The interior components contain two chambers and two retractable needles. The ILDD enters the bloodstream, the ILDD will attach to a specific virus using biomagnetism. Biomagnetism is that principle that states that many living things have a natural charge. Viruses, in particular, have a pH-dependent charge. This charge dictates the mobility of the virus and has a big role in process in which viruses attach to their host cell, viral entry. The ILDD, being set to a specific opposite charge in order to attract the virus, will eliminate this natural charge of the virus, making it hard for the virus to infect any host cells. This elimination of charge will prevent lysogenic cycle by making it extremely difficult for the virus to come into contact with its host cell. The ILDD will be prepacked with water or citric acid. Virus pH values fluctuate from about 3.5 to 7, so and acid and a base would be required to alter the charge in order to prevent the natural charge attraction between viruses and their would-be host cells.

The outer shell of the ILDD will dissolve into the bloodstream after 72 hours. After the outer shell dissolves, the inner component will dissolve into the bloodstream as well. Human blood contains significant amounts of water. Water is considered the universal solvent, so the water in the blood will be used to dissolve both parts of the

    Scientists subsequently discovered a more general procedure for artificial transformation. DNA can be forced into bacteria by exposing the bacteria to a high strength electric field. This procedure is called electroporation. Bacteria are grown to mid-exponential phase, pelleted by centrifugation and resuspended in a low ionic strength, high osmolarity solution such as 10% glycerol. DNA is added and the mixture is briefly exposed to a high strength electric field. The low ionic strength of the mixture is necessary to prevent short circuiting the electric field. The high…

    A bacterial virus, named WO, was discovered to contain spider-like DNA. WO is a bacteriophage (phage), a virus that infects and replicates within bacteria. It’s usual target is a bacterial parasite named Wolbachia. Wolbachia is found in 40% of arthropods and has recently been used to fight the Zika-carrying mosquitoes. Now, scientists realize they can use the virus to insert whatever gene they wanted into Wolbachia and then that would modify the mosquito from within. Animal genes were also found inside of WO which then led to the research of how phages could be used as a therapeutic tool to treat infections in humans. This is because WO provides evidence that a phage can get in and out of an animal cell or bacterial cell to attack an illness. This advantage of this would be that they are no side effects because they would only target the disease bacterium.…

    Because of virus’s parasitic characteristics, or the fact that they depend on host cells to “come alive,” viruses may be viewed as having a certain potential for life, which can be destroyed, but they cannot reach a more independent state of being. Viruses are not by themselves alive; however, they verge on life.…

A lytic phase in a virus is when the conditions for infecting are favorable, when there are many “victim cells” and good conditions outside the cell.…

    Recombinant form of vaccinia virus such as in genital herpes virus, a gene from its DNA can be multiplied and then can be inoculated into humans. Then the vaccinia virus can give a mild infection and further can express the protein for herpes virus to elicit immune response (Nagy, 2001). The basic principle that was used in production of today’s vaccines are based on the first vaccination by Edward Jenner for over 100 years ago where he introduced the world the concept of vaccination that led to the elimination of smallpox. The first therapeutic product Humulin, which was made commercially by genetically engineered bacterium. There is also genetically engineered malarial vaccine SPF –…

    Being new to the health care professions I am not very familiar with most of the technologies used today in our health care system and have also been fortunate enough to not need much care beyond a checkup here and there. However, being very interested in science I know how great the benefits of medical technology advancements can be to our nation and the world. I am choosing to focus on the technology of electronic health records (EHRs) as I feel they will greatly help patients and physicians once the transition from paper records is completed. There are many articles on this topic, but I chose to use one that incorporated a bit of the new health care law that recently when into effect. That law is the Affordable Care Act (ACA) which is currently working to reform our health care system. The article The Affordable Care Act and Electronic Health Care Records: Can Technology Help Reduce the Cost of Health Care? is a good place to start when it comes to discussing desired affect EHRs could have on our health care system as well as the more likely reality. I chose this article because it discusses the costs of health care and how EHRs affect those costs.…
