Delivering drugs with microrobots | Science Rather than moving toward locations to prolong survival and help ensure reproduction, microrobots are designed to move to the source of disease, such as blood flow–blocking thrombi or malignant tumors, where they can then release drugs that will have a highly toxic yet localized therapeutic effect
Robots in blood could deliver drugs | The Post Nelson said drug-ferrying microrobots of this kind may be three to five years from being tested in clinical trials The problem faced by many drugs under development is that they spread throughout the body instead of going only to the area in need When we take aspirin for a headache, for example, it is absorbed into the bloodstream and circulates throughout the body A major cause of side
