#Genetically Modified Chickens Developed Than Cannot Transmit Bird flu Scientists develop GM chickens that do not spread bird flu.
British scientists have developed genetically modified (GM) chickens that cannot transmit bird flu infections#a step that in future could reduce the risk of avian flu spreading
while the transgenic chickens still got sick and died when they were exposed to H5n1 bird flu,
they didnt transmit the virus to other chickens they came into contact with. Preventing virus transmission in chickens should reduce the economic impact of the disease
and reduce the risk posed to people,##said Laurence Tiley, of Cambridges department of veterinary medicine, one of the lead researchers on the study.
told a joint briefing the GM chickens could offer a way to improve economic and food security in parts of the world where bird flu is a major threat,
To breed their GM chickens, the researchers introduced a new gene into them that manufactures a small decoy#molecule that mimics an important control element of the bird flu virus. The replication machinery of the virus is tricked into recognizing the decoy molecule instead of the viral genes
After producing the modified chickens, they infected 10 of them and 10 normal chickens with H5n1 bird flu.
Like the normal chickens, the transgenic birds became sick with the virus, but they did not transmit the infection on to other chickens kept in the same pen with them
#even if those chickens were normal, non-transgenic birds. The study was published in Science. The researchers said they now plan to work on trying to make chickens that are fully resistant to bird flu rather than just blocking bird-to-bird transmission.

Data on sales of antibiotic-free meat is hard to come by, but the sales are a tiny fraction of the overall meat market.
Sales in the United states of organic meat, poultry and fish, which by law must be raised without antibiotics, totaled $538 million in 2011, according to the Organic Trade Association.
By comparison, sales of all beef that year were $79 billion. Still retailers like Costco, Whole Foods and Trader Joe s,
as well as some restaurant chains, complain that they cannot get enough antibiotic-free meat. Noodles & Company, a fast-growing chain of more than 300 restaurants, recently added antibiotic-free pork to the choices of ingredients that customers can add to their made-to-order pastas.
It ensured its supply by ordering cuts of meat that were not in relatively high demand
and by committing in advance to buy a year s worth, said Dan Fogarty, its executive vice president for marketing.
We re deliberately voting with our pocketbooks##he said. In a nationwide telephone survey of 1, 000 adults in March, more than 60 percent told the Consumer Reports National Research center that they would be willing to pay at least 5 cents a pound more for meat raised without antibiotics.
Before, it was kind of a nice little business, and while it s still microscopic in the grand scheme of things, we re seeing acceptance from retailers across the country, not just in California and on the East Coast,#said Stephen Mcdonnell, founder and chief executive of Applegate, an organic and natural
meats company. Mr. Mcdonnell said a confluence of trends from heightened interest in whole and natural foods to growing concerns about medical problems like diabetes,
obesity and glutenallergies, were contributing to the demand for antibiotic-free meat. There is growing concern among health care experts and policy makers about antibiotic resistance and the rise of superbugs,
who eat meat infected with them and then cannot be treated. In November, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and 25 national health organizations and advocacy groups issued a statement on antibiotics that

The meat guidelines are more complex. The old standards set a 1. 5-to 2-ounce daily minimum of a meat or meat alternate such as cheese, peanut butter or tofu.
Now there is a daily minimum and weekly maximums. So for instance, high school students must be served at least two ounces of a meat
or meat alternate daily as a minimum, but that can t exceed 12 ounces on a weekly basis. Younger kids are offered less.
There are similar requirements for grains. The biggest part of the problem with the new school lunch is reduced the amount of protein from meat in the meal from previous years,
says Brenda Kirkham, art and publications teacher at Wallace County High school. She came up with the idea of the We Are Hungry video (set to the tune of fun. s We Are Young)
That two ounces of meat daily wasn t enough. By 1: 30 to 2 o clock they complain about how hungry they are.
