The immune response system is a gold mine of information; by reading the immune system, one can obtain a history of exposures for the organism. One can use cell machinery to make more robust biological molecules, but it is important to remember that while some cells remain stable at 100°C, the indiviclual components may not be stable when taken out of the organism.
