Apples that fight decay

  An apple a day could keep the dentist away - but only if it has been genetically modified, say British experts.

Fruit which has been engineered to contain an edible vaccine against tooth decay is being developed by horticultural scientists.

It could save future generations of children from ever having a filling and allow adults to throw away their toothbrushes.

A team from Guy's Hospital, in central London, and the Apple and Pear Research Council have been working on the apple.

Council chairman Professor Ian Swingland said: 'We put it in an apple in an amusing thought that an apple a day could keep the dentist away.' Experts are trying to insert a gene that will produce a protein that prevents the bacteria responsible for tooth decay from taking hold.

Professor Swingland said he realised that public resistance to genetically modified foods could hold up the project.

But he said he could envisage doctors prescribing the GM apples to patients who had problems with tooth decay and said it could represent a major breakthrough for public health. It would be of particular benefit to people who could not afford to go to the dentist.

 

Scientists could also use GM fruit as a means of delivering other medicines. 'If you want an apple that has penicillin inside it, it's easy,' Professor Swing-land told BBC Radio 4's Farming Today programme.

'If you want an apple that will provide hits of B12, or any other vitamin that you want, it can be done.' In tests, where the anti-tooth decay protein was painted on to volunteers' teeth, it was found to prevent bacteria attacking them for up to 80 days.
