This week in lecture, we briefly discussed quality in the lab. This mostly consisted of correct temperatures, control organisms, and other regulations that maitain proper conditions in the lab. The other topic we discussed was virology. This testing is not routinely done in the hospital laboratory. Viruses are obligate intracellular parasites, and do not multiply by binary fission like bacteria. they can only be seen with an electron microscope. Viruses contain a nucleic acid core, envelope, and glycoprotein spikes. In order to replicate, the virus can attach, penetrate, uncoat, replicate, assembly, and release. There are patterns of viral disease. These include acute infections, persistent infections, and slow infection. The methods used to detect viruses vary significantly depending on the lab. One of the major viruses we think of is HIV. The link below is a short video that gives a good overview of how the virus attaches and the integration. Enjoy!
HIV
First of all that video you posted was amazing so thank you for finding it and posting it to your blog.
ReplyDeleteThe human body’s only real defense against HIV is the natural killer cells. I've always wondered if it were possible that if more natural killer cells were introduced along-side current treatment if HIV could be cured. I have tried to research if anyone has studied the same idea and have not found anything. Also there is a company in Japan that is studying how to produce rbc's from peripheral stem cells in a large enough quantity to be transfused into patients. I wonder if once this technology is perfected if it could be used to create NK cells, from an individual patient’s stem cells, to be re-transfused along-side current treatment for HIV. This is only a thought

I really liked the link. It was very helpful that it talked about the specific proteins that are responsible for each step and about how different drugs can stop the viral replication at each part of the life cycle. I also appreciated your summary of the basics of viruses and viral diseases.

I am bold enough among many others to state that there is now a potent cure to this sickness but many are unaware of it. I discovered that I was infected with the virus 3 months ago, after a medical check-up. My doctor told me and I was shocked, confused and felt like my world has crumbled. I was dying slowly due to the announcement of my medical practitioner but he assured me that I could leave a normal life if I took my medications (as there was no medically known cure to Herpes). I went from churches to churches but soon found that my case needed urgent attention as I was growing lean due to fear of dying anytime soon. In a bid to look for a lasting solution to my predicament, I sought for solutions from the herbal world. I went online and searched for every powerful trado-medical practitioner that I could severe, cos I heard that the African Herbs had a cure to the Herpes syndrome. It was after a little time searching the web that I came across one Dr Itua(A powerful African Herbal Doctor), who offered to help me at a monetary fee. I had to comply as this was my final bus-stop to receiving a perfect healing. My last resolve was to take my life by myself, should this plan fail. At last it worked out well. He gave me some steps to follow and I meticulously carried out all his instructions. Last month, to be precise, I went back to the hospital to conduct another test and to my amazement, the results showed that negative,Dr Itua Can As Well Cure The Following Desease…Cancer,Hiv,Herpes, Hepatitis B,Liver Inflammatory,Diabetis,Fribroid,,Non Hodgkin Lymphoma,Skin Cancer,Uterine Cancer,Prostate Cancer Dercum,Infertility,fibromyalgia,Get Your Ex Back,Als,SYPHILLIS,Genetic disease,Epilepsy, Parkinson's disease..You can free yourself of this Herpes virus by consulting this great African Herbal Doctor via this e-mail: drituaherbalcenter@gmail.com or call and whatsapp him on +2348149277967 He will help you and his herb medication is sure. he has the cure on all disease .You can talk to me on INSTAGRAM..tashamoore219....

ReplyDeleteI’m here to testify about what Dr James did for me. I have been suffering from (GENITAL HERPES VIRUS) disease for the past 4 years and had constant pain and itching, especially in my private part. During the first year, I had faith in God that i would be cured someday.This disease started circulating all over my body and I have been taking treatment from my doctor, few weeks ago I came across a testimony of Holly Woodgate, on the internet testifying about a Man called Dr James on how he cured her from 7 years HSV 2. And she also gave the email address of this man, advising anybody to contact him for help on any kind of diseases that he would be of help, so I emailed him telling him about my (HSV 2) he told me not to worry that I was going to be cured!! Well, I never doubted him. I have faith he can cure me too,, Dr James prepared and sent me Healing Oil, Soap, roots and herbs which I took. In the first one week, I started experiencing changes all over me, after four weeks of using his Roots/ Herbs, Oil and Soap, I was totally cured. no more itching , pain on me anymore as Dr James assured me. After some time I went to my doctor to do another test. the result came out negative. So friends my advice is if you have such disease or know anyone who suffers from it or any other disease like HPV, HBV, HIV, ALS, HBP, CANCER etc. you can contact Dr James for help via drjamesherbalmix@gamil.com or whatsapp +2348152855846
