If you wanted to try out new cures, you would need to understand how those vaccines may affect the human body. Specifically, what side effects might occur in the DNA that could cause mutations that you don’t want.
It used to be that small controlled tests on humans or animals could help approximate those results, and some of those practices are still in use today. However, thanks to oligo synthesis, which allows medical technicians to simulate a chemical reaction with DNA, scientist have greater understanding of the potential affects a vaccine might have before it’s ever tested on a live subject.
Synthesizing a Reaction
Breakthroughs in reading and understanding the human genome have led to interesting uses for RNA synthesis, which is the process that instructs DNA on what to do. Scientists might be able to use RNA synthesis to deactivate the DNA that causes cancer cells to multiply using this technique. Unfortunately, there is a risk if we cannot target the proper cells.
If we try vaccines out on humans or animals, scientists run a very high risk factor for the chance that a drug might work. This is not great science. First off, it’s not a very safe approach to experimentation. It also doesn’t help us when we try and study a disease that only affects a small portion of the global population.
In a lab setting, we can recreate the conditions leading up to disease and observe the reaction in real time. This gives us greater insight into the human genome, and how potential cures might affect the population once live human testing begins.
