PLEASE HELP ASAP NO LINKS OR I WILL REPORT Horseshoe crabs, living relatives of extinct trilobites, have been gathering on beaches for 350 million years. They usually become food for fish and birds. Yet someday your life might depend on horseshow crabs - or at least on their blood. Unlike human blood, horseshoe crab blood contains only one type of blood cell. If bacteria enter the crab's bloodstream from an open wound, blood cells secrete a clotting factor. This secretion closes the wound, and the blood cells engulf the bacteria. When scientists saw that horseshoe crab blood turned to a get in the presence of harmful bacteria, they realized its value. Today, medical professionals use an extract made from horseshoe crab blood to screen all intravenous medicines for bacteria. A quart of this special blood costs about $15,000!
The horseshoe crab blood can do even more. Another component of the blood can stop the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) from replicating, or making copies of itself. Part of horseshoe crab blood can act as an antibiotic. Scientists are also using horseshoe crab blood in the development of a handheld instrument that helps to diagnose human illnesses. The instrument uses enzymes from the blood as illness detectors.
**Technicians remove only a small portion of the crabs' blood. After this procedure, the crabs are returned to the oceans. Their blood cell levels return to normal in a couple of weeks.
