At this present age, medical research has seen advances far and wide. The field of research today has never been more fervent in their desire to discover new products and new cures for diseases that are plaguing the people today. Research needs great funding and this is the reason why many countries invest large sums of money to support this. Research is a great undertaking. So, if these researches pull through and are able to produce that which can cure and treat our present day diseases, then what a great benefit that would be. And at this present time, there are some research successes that people of this present age can benefit from. There are amazing and mind boggling developments in research at the present time. Below are some of these developments.
One of the most challenging subjects in life is biology. The life of plants and animals are unknown to most human beings today. However, one of the great developments in this science is the discovery of growing human tissue on spinach leaves. The center of the study is using veins that exist in the leaves to carry blood to the tissue and remove it again. There are many great applications for this research development. One of the greatest applications is in the area of heart transplants where it will now be possible for it to be conducted without having to fear rejection from the donor. Repairing the heart makes it possible through this development. We can all be excited about these discoveries.
In the area of cancer research, it has been shown that e-cigarettes could be as safe as other nicotine replacements. There was a group of people used for this research and this group consisted of people who smoked e-cigarettes for more than a year now. The urine and saliva of this group were tested for traces of the twenty chemicals found in cigarettes. Together with these, another group of people were tested and these were cigarette smokers and those using other nicotine replacements. And it showed that vaping was the nearest to traditional replacements than others. You still need to be careful even though this is a great development. There are e-liquids that are said to contain harmful chemicals that can make one sick. You need to research to find the best e-liquids.
Using DNA to perform prolonged storage is another scientific development. There has been a recent breakthrough where scientists were able to store and recover large files within DNA by programming the data into the code that the DNA knows. In order to retrieve that data, you simply sequence back into code that computers can read. This uses bio technology and is a really great discovery. Using four grams of DNA is large enough to store the data created by all humanity over a span of a year.
