      • Bacteria and Fungi can be cultured in an artificial\/ synthetic medium. Whereas viruses require a living host cell for replication.<\/strong>\n
          \n
        • Infected host cells (eukaryotic or prokaryotic) can be cultured and grown, and then the growth medium can be harvested as a source of the virus.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Viruses lack metabolic machinery of their own <\/strong>and are totally dependent on their host cell for replication, they cannot be grown in synthetic culture media. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Bacteria can be grown in synthetic culture media. Researchers a had rewritten the DNA of the bacteria Escherichia coli, fashioning a synthetic genome four times larger and far more complex than any previously created.  <\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Fungi can be grown in synthetic culture media. Four allergologically important fungi, viz. Aspergillus fumigatus, Alternaria Penicillium notatum, and Cladosporium herbarum, were cultured in a pure synthetic medium.  <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
