Both developed and developing nations are today faced with continuous threats posed by the emergence of contagious animal diseases that have had and may continue to have serious health consequences on the world population. Considering the fact that animals are our traditional protein sources and that they are becoming more and more expensive, it is important for scientists to intensify research into alternative and affordable protein sources.

Abstract


Both developed and developing nations are today faced with continuous threats posed by the emergence of contagious animal diseases that have had and may continue to have serious health consequences on the world population. Considering the fact that animals are our traditional protein sources and that they are becoming more and more expensive, it is important for scientists to intensify research into alternative and affordable protein sources.
