For our project we wanted to tackle the problem of infections in developing countries, and chose cholera and shigellosis to focus on. We decided on these two infections because they are the cause of millions of deaths a year and right now cures aren’t readily available for the people effected to use. So our final idea came to be a preventative that stops <i>Vibrio cholerae</i> and <i>Shigella</i> from being virulent. We have utilised a way of doing this through the process of RNA interference (RNAi). For this we had to design and construct a viable structure which will be able to effectively kill off the bacteria.
 +

 +
 
 +
<h5>Cholera</h5>
 +
 
 +
Cholera is a diarrheal disease caused by the bacterium <i>Vibrio cholerae</i> through the ingestion of contaminated food or water. Without proper treatment, within hours severe dehydration and even death can occur due to the infections symptoms: acute watery diarrhoea.
 +
 
 +
<h5>Shigellosis dysentery</h5>
 +
 
 +
Shigellosis is a bacterial infection caused by the group of bacteria, Shigella, affecting the digestive system. The infection is spread through contaminated water and food and irritates the intestines. The main symptom of shigellosis is diarrhoea.

Description

For our project we wanted to tackle the problem of infections in developing countries, and chose cholera and shigellosis to focus on. We decided on these two infections because they are the cause of millions of deaths a year and right now cures aren’t readily available for the people effected to use. So our final idea came to be a preventative that stops Vibrio cholerae and Shigella from being virulent. We have utilised a way of doing this through the process of RNA interference (RNAi). For this we had to design and construct a viable structure which will be able to effectively kill off the bacteria.



Cholera
Cholera is a diarrheal disease caused by the bacterium Vibrio cholerae through the ingestion of contaminated food or water. Without proper treatment, within hours severe dehydration and even death can occur due to the infections symptoms: acute watery diarrhoea.
Shigellosis dysentery
Shigellosis is a bacterial infection caused by the group of bacteria, Shigella, affecting the digestive system. The infection is spread through contaminated water and food and irritates the intestines. The main symptom of shigellosis is diarrhoea.
