- Robots in your bloodstream could deliver drugs with greater . . .
The silicone models are used in medical training Nelson said drug-ferrying microrobots of this kind may be three to five years from being tested in clinical trials
- Clinically ready magnetic microrobots for targeted therapies
A challenge in the design of microrobots is balancing biocompatibility, biodegradability, size, and magnetic properties required for precise control Ideally, one would also like to achieve real-time tracking, efficient navigation, and robust drug-loading capabilities Landers et al designed a microrobotic system that combines electromagnetic navigation, a release catheter, and dissolvable
- Tiny bots in your bloodstream? Meet the new frontier in drug . . .
Discover how magnetically guided, dissolvable microrobots could transform precision medicine This blog explains their design, navigation, targeted drug delivery benefits, clinical applications, and safety considerations—based on the latest research published in Nature
- Microrobots that can carry drugs and steer could provide . . .
Microrobots formed in droplets could enable precision-targeted drug delivery, improving on I V drug delivery that sends only 0 7% of the drug to the target tissue, according to a recent
- Microrobots finding their way | ETH Zurich - ETH Zürich
The microrobots also contain the active ingredient they need to deliver The researchers successfully loaded the microrobots with common drugs for a variety of applications – in this case a thrombus-dissolving agent, an antibiotic or tumour medication
- Tiny robots swim through blood, deliver drugs — and then dissolve
A remote-controlled robot the size of a grain of sand can swim through blood vessels to deliver drugs before dissolving into the body The technology could allow doctors to administer small
- Magnetically Guided Microrobots Deliver Drugs with Pinpoint . . .
Researchers headed by a team at ETH Zurich have developed a magnetically guided microrobotics system that they say can navigate the body’s intricate passageways and vasculature to deliver drugs
