American researchers have created a compound that successfully attacks the three main components of the immunodeficiency virus - HIV, according to Pannochka, an online publication for girls and women from 14 to 35 years old.. net The authors of the development from the US National Institutes of Health and the pharmaceutical company Sanofi used the so-called broadly neutralizing antibodies. They kill a significant proportion of virus strains and prevent infection..

Several types of such antibodies have been combined into a triple action substance, writes the BBC..

“The new antibodies are more powerful and have a broader range of action than any single natural antibody known to date.. We have achieved 99 percent coverage,” says study co-author Gary Nabel..

Tested a revolutionary tool on 24 monkeys. During the experiment, none of them became infected after the introduction of the HIV virus..

Because of this property of HIV strains, it is difficult for the human immune system to fight them..
