convolascent plasma therapy for cornonavirus

-
Hello guys!

 The elevating cases of corona in the world forced researchers to discover antibiotics.  scientists experimenting and researching continuously to develop vaccines or therapy that may help to beat the corona crisis.

So, one of the therapies that doctors believe to experiment on patients is plasma therapy. Plasma is a watery fluid of the blood. This plasma is consists of corpuscles and thrombocytes in addition to that plasma also contains some proteins (immunoglobulin) which produce antibodies.
Our body works on the principle of the immune system. The basic principle of the immune system is that it forms antibodies against any foreign antigen that enters the body. Our immune system memorizes this antigen and this is called the primary response. If the second time again this same antigen comes into the body by any means then our antibody recognizes it and neutralizes this foreign antigen.  This principle is becoming helpful for experimenting against coronavirus.

If any person recovered from this virus then the plasma of that person can be used to fight against this virus. These antibodies can be used to treat more patients who are suffering from this virus. The antibody memorizes this foreign antigen and neutralizes the virus. In this way, we could save multiple person' life suffered from covid-19.

Past history of this therapy -

  • At the time of the Spanish flu, this therapy was used experimentally.
  • At the time of SARS, this therapy showed a good effect. 
Plasma therapy in present - Convalescent plasma therapy is explored by China and try it on some patients and they revealed that the patient showing improvement in recovery was noticed and all of them later on discharged. This exploration was published by China in the Journal of American Medical Association. 
However, this process in under trial as the research utters that there is some unknown right that needs to resolve out like in what quantity doses will work as antibodies? At what stage of illness it will be given to the patient? Are some reasons that will need to be addressed.

Reproduction is a must process for every individual for the continuing existence of the species. As we all know, there are many different species on the planet, and each of them has a unique method of egg production and inside the egg they contain yolk . The yolk is composed of proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals, which are vital for the growth and development of the embryo.  Eggs can be classified into different types based on the amount of yolk they contain. l.  On the basis of the amount of Yolk - Dep...
