<h3>Why is it crucial to find a new approach to contraception?</h3>
+
</body>
<p>  
+
</html>
  
Hormonal contraception has a lot of side effects for women (such as weight gain or acne), a pill is easy to forget, and there is an environmental impact since water can be contaminated by hormones. </br>
+
{{Template:Montpellier/Footer}}
Despite the huge progress made for contraception since the beginning of the 20th century contraception still needs improvment.<br/>
+
We want to use microbicide with a spermicidal effect as a new way of contraception: safe and affordable, with a long term effect.
+
 
+
 
+
</p>
+
 
+
<h3> How do we do that ? </h3>
+
<p>
+
We decided to focus on making a new kind of contraceptive using <i>Lactobacillus jensenii</i>, which is one of the most represented bacteria in the vaginal flora. This hormone-free contraception uses a designed Lactobacillus jensenii that has the ability to immobilize spermatozoa in the vagina. <br/>
+
How does it really work? Our goal is to create bacteria capable of having a “switch effect”. When a woman decides to turn it on, bacteria will have a spermicidal effect and will allow in situ contraception. Otherwise, bacteria will be in “off mode”, and spermatozoa will be able to pass. <br/>
+
 
+
Several studies have demonstrated that many molecules have spermicidal activity, we are focusing on some of them such as Nisin, Subtilosin.. (for more information : <a href = "https://2018.igem.org/Team:Montpellier/Description"> Description of the projet</a>)
+
 
+
The idea is to introduce the genes that are coding for the spermicidal peptids and anti bodies into Lactobacillus jensenii and then to apply a colony of these designed bacteria into the vagina for long-term contraception.
+
</p>
+
 
+
 
+
<h3> <i>Lactobacillus jensenii</i> a little-known bacteria from scientific consortia </h3>
+
<p>
+
<i>Lactobacillus jensenii</i> is a bacteria little studied. We can find it in the vagina (23% of vaginal microflora),on the skins of grapes at the time of their harvest. Moreover, in the industry <i>L. jensenii</i> is sometimes used in producing fermented foods. </br> </br>
+
A part of our project is to establish a toolbox of <i>L. jensenii</i> thanks to bioinformatic tools and modelisation. Indeed <i>L.jensenii</i> is essential for the vagina health. 
+
We hope that a better knowledge of this bacteriua essential to the proper functioning of the female genital tract will help a better understanding of certain diseases such as fungal infections, urinary tract infections..
