The tobacco, considered one of the worst enemies for the health of the humans in the planet, responsible for dozens of thousands of deaths every year in the world, it is about to change in decisive form their image.
In Colombia they are ahead investigations to transform it into producer of important favorable medicinal substances to the human health.
It is a project of drugs of vegetable origin that they will allow to obtain in ten years pharmaceutical products that are not only of great medicinal and social value, but rather their production is also to low cost and its high economic yields.
THE INVESTIGATION
Why is it important? According to the team of investigations of Bayer, CropScience, "during this year a protein has been studied that can pass to the phase of clinical development after the rising of a plant of tobacco pilot."
When will he give results? According to the plans of Bayer Innovation, will be clever to work in the 2007.
What is it looked for with her? This plant will allow to manufacture proteins in enough quantity to facilitate clinical studies until the phase II.
ADVANTAGES
According to the laboratory, at the end of the process a production will be obtained that will contribute advantages:
1. - speed in the production.
2. - Reproductibilidad to great scale of the results.
3. - smaller capital investments.
4. - lower production costs.
IMPORTANT COMMENTS
With the plant of the tobacco one can obtain a specially big yield.
The surface of cultivation of a hothouse is enough to cover the necessities of protein production for an active principle."
With the plant of the tobacco it will be possible to manufacture to great scale medications, the investigators said.
The origin
The idea of taking advantage of the plants like biofactoría of proteins arose at the end of the decade of 1980. From then on the area of activities of Bio sciencie, and on the other hand Bayer Innovation, had advances in the pharmacological fields and fitosanitario.
At the present time there is in the market proteins of therapeutic effectiveness.
Those proteins don't have vegetable origin, but rather they take place in cultivations of bacterias, mushrooms or animal cells.
Bayer Crop-Science makes presence in 120 countries and he is leader in the innovation of the field of the agrociencias and the fitosanidad environments and vegetable biotechnology.
