Genetically engineered bird flu vaccine completely protects chickens from the deadly H5N1 strain of bird flu?
Researchers at the University of Pittsburgh have developed a genetically engineered bird flu vaccine that say completely protects chickens from the deadly H5N1 strain of bird flu.
“This is a very potent vaccine. It took roughly about 30 days to make the vaccine from when we received the sequence information from CDC in Atlanta,” said lead researcher Dr Andrea Gambotto of the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. This new method could herald in an era of genetically engineered vaccines that are quickly made and with cleaner methods than conventional vaccine production, which takes up plenty of time and needs to be grown on chicken eggs.
