The world is about to get freedom from viruses!

new Delhi. For some time, the whole world is troubled by different viruses. The whole world is struggling with the corona virus. But this time the organism found can prove to be effective for us. Because this organism eats other viruses. Scientists at the US-based University of Nebraska-Lincoln have discovered an organism that, by eating other viruses, reduces their number and increases its size.

found in fresh water
It is possible that in the coming time this virus can be used to eliminate harmful viruses. Although it is being treated like an organism. Actually, this organism is called Plankton, which is found in clean water. This creature fills its stomach by eating only viruses. But it is not that this organism eats the virus, but it is the only organism that only eats the virus. While other organisms eat the virus when needed.

catches and eats viruses with its proboscis
Scientists have named it Virovari. The microbe that only eats viruses is called Halteria. It is a protist organism. In the water, it waves its hair-like thin trunk, catches the virus and eats it. In the lab too, this organism ate chlorovirus. This is a giant virus. By eating this, Halteria has increased its number in the sources of clean water around the world.

The world is about to get freedom from viruses! Scientists found such an organism, which eats virus

John Delong, the lead researcher who made this discovery, said that the relationship between the virus and Halteria is amazing. Halteria, which eat the virus and then increase their population, are producing a large amount of energy. That is, if we look at the level of the whole world, then carbon cycling is happening on a large scale. John says that this is a great discovery. There is a need to do more research on this, which is being done. We have to find out whether this phenomenon is happening in the forests as well.
