<title>Oral immunotherapy effective in fighting TB</title>
<description><![CDATA[<h2 class="capitalised"><strong>Oral immunotherapy effective in fighting TB</strong></h2>
<p>Tuberculosis is a prevalent and damaging infectious disease &ndash; approximately one third of the world&rsquo;s population is infected. Of those people with latent infection, approximately 10% will develop clinical disease at some time during their lifetime. <br />
<br />
Immunotherapy can be used to revert the disease-associated immune response of affected patients to that of healthy people. The most promising of such approaches has been to use heat-killed suspensions of the Mycobacterium vaccae combined with chemotherapy.</p>]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[<p><br />
<br />
January 2010<br />
<br />
Launched in January 2010, <a href="http://www.future-science.com/loi/bfs"><em>Biofuels</em></a> is the first of a new range of environmental science titles published by <a href="http://www.future-science.com"><strong>Future Science</strong></a>. This peer-reviewed journal is devoted to the rapid publication of new findings and topical commentary in biofuel research. <a href="http://www,future-science.com"><strong>Future Science</strong></a> is part of the London-based <a href="http://www.future-science-group.com"><strong>Future Science Group</strong></a>. <br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.future-science.com/loi/bfs"><em>Biofuels</em></a> provides a forum for all stakeholders in the bioenergy sector, featuring original research, review articles, commentaries, news and much more, with a view to establishing an international forum for biofuel research and communication. <br />
<br />
Biofuels research is progressing at an unprecedented rate, with the development of new feedstocks and improvements in production processes providing the key to the transformation of biomass into a global energy resource. Published on a bimonthly basis, <em>Biofuels</em> will report key developments and place these advances in context during this exciting evolution. <br />
<br />
The editorial direction of <em>Biofuels</em> is the responsibility of Senior Editors Yusuf Christi (Massey University, New Zealand) and Timothy Donohue (University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA). The Senior Editors are supported by a team of two Associate Editors, together with an Advisory Panel of more than thirty international experts. <br />
<br />
Senior Editor Yusuf Christi said, &ldquo;Environmental, economic and social sustainability are inseparably linked to a sustainable supply of energy. As readily useable, potentially environmentally benign and a renewable form of energy, biofuels are poised to contribute to our energy supply in a meaningful way&ldquo;. He concluded that, &ldquo;&hellip;.the journal <em>Biofuels</em> intends to be at the forefront of the emerging developments on all aspects of biofuels.&rdquo; <br />
<br />
All articles submitted to the journal are subject to peer review by three, or more, independent assessors. Elisa Manzotti, Editorial Director at <strong>Future Science</strong> said, &ldquo;There has been a phenomenal response to requests for manuscript submissions by Yusuf Christi &amp; Timothy Donohue, indicating just how much interest there is in this exciting and emerging field. Our launch issue contains more than two hundred pages of insightful commentary&rdquo;.&nbsp; She added, &ldquo;The journal marks the perfect beginning of the environmental science portfolio at <strong>Future Science</strong>, and further details of this expanding programme will follow in due course.&rdquo; <br />
