Cellular Communication through Light
Information transfer is a fundamental of life. A few studies have reported that cells use photons (from an endogenous source) as information carriers. This study finds that cells can have an influence on other cells even when separated with a glass barrier, thereby disabling molecule diffusion through the cell-containing medium. As there is still very little known about the potential of photons...
متن کاملMicrorobots propulsion system design for drug delivery
Scale down robots with propeller propulsion mechanisms are promising tools for minimally invasive surgery, diagnosis, targeted therapy, drug delivery and removing material from human body. Understanding the movement of micro robots inside fluid-filled channels is essential for design and control of reduced robots inside arteries and conduits of living organisms. Three-dimensional governing part...
متن کاملDrug Delivery Based on Swarm Microrobots
Advances in the development of technology have led to microrobots applications in medical ̄elds. Drug delivery is one of these applications in which microrobots deliver a pharmaceutical compound to targeted cells. Chemotherapy and its side e®ects can then be minimized by this method. Two major constraints, however, must be considered: the robot's onboard energy supply and the time needed for dru...
متن کاملHybrid helical magnetic microrobots obtained by 3D template-assisted electrodeposition.
Hybrid helical magnetic microrobots are achieved by sequential electrodeposition of a CoNi alloy and PPy inside a photoresist template patterned by 3D laser lithography. A controlled actuation of the microrobots by a rotating magnetic field is demonstrated in a fluidic environment.
متن کاملVisually Servoing Wireless Magnetic Intraocular Microrobots
Robotic systems that can undertake surgical tasks, provide assistance to the clinicians, and augment their capabilities are rapidly being developed. One of the common research areas for surgical robotics is ophthalmology. Ophthalmic procedures require increased dexterity and delicate motions in order to avert any damage caused to the visual receptors. Moreover, drug delivery for ophthalmology p...
