Genetically modified cells with resistance to bacteries
Vote this article
This artificial skin may help in recovering of tissues for burned victims.
For the moment there are tests in progress on animals.
They hope to produce artificial skin that can sweat, tan and to fight against infections, even to grow hair on it.
The skin hydrate us, cleans our organism using sweat and blocks bacterias.
Much new is that the scientists develops a new model to recover the skin from a damaged zone.
Anyway the biggest but temporary problem of artificial skin is resistance to infection. If the skin is created in test tubes may become much resistant to bacterias then original skin.
It will take anyway a long time until this skin will be used in clinical use.
