The cowpea mosaic virus could provide an affordable and effective immunotherapy treatment if clinical trials are successful.

The new facility will be Asahi Kasei Life Science's fourth spinning plant for hollow-fiber cellulose membrane filters.

An experimental treatment made from a plant virus is effective at protecting against a broad range of metastatic cancers in mice, shows a new study from the University of California San Diego.

The plant virus, which is non-infectious to humans and animals, works if injected directly into tumors, but in recent studies, researchers found an easier way to administer the treatment - a shot.

The virus spreads easily through contaminated tools, hands, clothing and direct plant-to-plant contact. ToBRFV can also be seed-borne and transmitted through irrigation water, grafting, and cuttings.
