Dalan Animal Health CEO Annette Kleiser said it has every chance of being a “remarkable success in protecting honey bees.”
American scientists have developed a cure for a deadly bacterial disease that attacks and weakens insect colonies. Specifically, bees. The BBC writes about it.
As you know, bees are pollinators. They play an important role in many aspects of the ecosystem. But lately, more and more people are falling prey to the American foulbrood. It is a bacterial disease.
The USDA has already approved a conditional license for this vaccine.
The vaccine works by injecting an inactive version of the bacteria into the royal jelly that the queen feeds on. So its larvae after gaining immunity.
“The honey bee vaccine contains an inactive version of the bacteria that causes the deadly American foulbrood by attacking honey bee larvae. The developers noticed that the bacteria was placed in the royal jelly that the workers fed bee to the queen, she swallows it and divides. of the vaccine is stored in her ovaries, thereby providing immunity to the next generation of larvae,” said the researchers.
It will be remembered that earlier the photographer showed the “face” of the ant up close. Like a horror frame.
