GERMANY-COMPANIES-BIOMONDE
Larvae of the greenbottle fly sitting on so-called horse blood agar, a nutriment base made of horse blood, are seen through a magnifying glass at the pharmaceutical company BioMonde in the northern town of Barsbuettel near Hamburg, 26 August 2004. The maggots are applied to help wounds to heal. The larvae feed exclusively on dead tissue, absorb and digest large numbers of bacteria and speed up the healing process with their saliva containing substances which promote the formation of new tissue.
