29、Ants have the ability to sniff out (嗅出) cancerous cells in humans, a new study has discovered.
Researchers from the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) discovered that Formica fusca ants (丝光褐林蚁) were able to tell cancerous cells from healthy cells in humans, thanks to their well developed sense of smell. But more clinical tests must be carried out before they could be used in clinical settings like hospitals, the team said.
To conduct their research, the scientists performed tests with 36 ants, smelling cells under a laboratory setting. First, they exposed the ants to the smell of a sample of cancerous human cells. The ants were rewarded with a sugar solution when they sniffed out cancer cells. In a second step, the researchers exposed the ants to two different smells. One was a new smell and the second was the smell of the cancerous cells. Once this test was successful, the researchers exposed the ants to different cancerous cells. As such, the scientists found that ants tell the difference between cancerous and healthy cells and between two cancerous lines.
“This first study shows that ants have high potential, are capable of learning very quickly, at lower cost, and are efficient,” points out CNRS in a news release.
This isn’t the first time that scientists have used the animal sense of smell to locate cancerous cells. “Dogs’ noses are well suited for medical diagnosis and used for the detection of cancer-specific volatile organic compound (挥发性有机化合物). However, training them to do so requires several months to a year.” the researchers explained.
“Insects can be easily raised in controlled conditions. They have a very well-developed smell system and hundreds of individuals can be trained with very few trials. Ants therefore represent a fast, efficient and inexpensive tool for detection of cancer cell volatiles.” the researchers point out.
【1】How many steps did scientists take to test ants’ ability to detect cancerous cells?
A.Two
B.Three.
C.Four.
D.Five.
【2】What can be inferred from the research?
A.Training ants takes much time and money.
B.Ants could be used for cancer diagnosis in future.
C.Dogs have been replaced by ants in medical diagnosis.
D.Scientists have decided to raise ants for detection tasks.
【3】What does the passage mainly tell us?
A.Dogs are well suited for medical diagnosis.
B.Ants are playing a vital role in clinical settings.
C.The animal sense of smell could be used to treat cancer.
D.Ants have the ability to detect cancerous cells in humans.
【4】Where is the passage most probably taken from?
A.An advertisement.
B.A guide book.
C.A science journal.
D.A film review.
