Xenotransplantation carries the hazard of spreading of infection with graft’s tissues or organs.
Degree of risk varies from infection to infection and it’s approximately not known in the absence
of clinical trials. A clinical application is considered at national and international level for
observation of infectious disease. Preclinical trials represent that whether the infection is minor
or accurate; and degree of expansion from animal to humans.
Regrettably, the chance of an infection can be enhanced by the drug treatment which is given to a
transplant patient to repress its immune system and the rejection which he can receive from that
transplant. These infections can be human to human or animal to human. Researchers judge that
an infection chance by pathogen-caused subconscious disease would be minimized in the
constant road as for human infections: by rigorous slow of font animals and correct handling of
remove recipients if an infection occurs.
While animal infections that are well-known may not lead to serious problems,
xenotransplantation has another related risk that will pose serious effects on individuals and the
community. A new type of infection might emerge which will spread to close community and
will lead to a severe epidemic. Therefore safety precautions as well as strict procedure
observations are considered to get rid of this sort of disasters.
