Robotically controlled microprey to resolve initial attack modes preceding phagocytosis

Abstract

The behavior of phagocytes to capture intruders is tracked using remotely rotated and translated nanoparticles.

Future of Nanoparticles in the Field of Medicine

“…Based on the different research models given, we used the theory according to which the tumor in the affected area can be removed by heating it up to temperatures [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20], in the range of 41-46°C. It was proposed that if the power ranges 2.75-6.5 W, when applied to the magnetic nanoparticles (present at the tumor site), for duration of (up to) 10 s, a tumor having diameter of size 5 cm can be successfully/efficiently removed.…”

“…It was proposed that if the power ranges 2.75-6.5 W, when applied to the magnetic nanoparticles (present at the tumor site), for duration of (up to) 10 s, a tumor having diameter of size 5 cm can be successfully/efficiently removed. Dependency of temperature in the affected area on the diameter of the magnetic nanoparticle in addition to exposure time of magnetic nanoparticles by alternating magnetic field and power was studied [20,21].…”

“…Based on the hypothesis that the temperature and flux at the boundary are continuous and fine, the boundary conditions can be written as ð3Þ ð4Þ Figure 1. Tumor tissue, spherical in shape, surrounded by normal tissue concentric sphere [20]. To solve the above system of differential equations, we discretize it using the Euler method, which is reproduced here [20].…”

Self‐Propelled Nanomotors for Thermomechanically Percolating Cell Membranes

“…The active propulsion of synthetic nanomotors is a promising strategy for various complex tasks in nanomedicine . For instance, self‐propelled nanomotors as new‐generation smart drug delivery vehicles can use their mobility to improve drug delivery efficiency and shorten the passive transportation time in the blood circulation .…”

Automatic Noncontact Extraction and Independent Manipulation of Magnetic Particles Using Electromagnetic Needle

“…This technology is appealing because magnetic field allows non-contact manipulation and affects only magnetic particles with little impact on other objects e.g. cells [9], [10]. Manipulation using magnetic fields has found a wide range of applications such as sorting and trapping of magnetically tagged micro-organisms [12], [13], sub-cellular control of signaling [14] and immunoassays [15], to name a few.…”
