A new use of nanobots to develop drugs

in #technology6 years ago

In recent years, the application of nanotechnology is becoming more and more extensive. And nanobots have also made new breakthroughs in the medical field.

The Canadian Academy of engineering, University of Toronto professor Sun Yu said, through nanotechnology, medicine can be input cells at the atomic level, to observe the effect of these drugs on the cells of the previous day to do ten cell test, now an hour can test one thousand cells. At present, limited by industrial level, nanobots have research bottlenecks in driving, controlling, sensing feedback and so on.

According to the introduction, the nano operating robot has the position detection sensor, which can realize automatic programmable motion. Compared with traditional robots, super sensitive and ultra high precision are their advantages and characteristics. They can accomplish specific observation, characterization and manipulation tasks at very small scale, and because of this, they are currently used in medical field

By this robot micro control form to test drugs, the testing efficiency is greatly improved, and can make some new use of old drugs.

In addition, nanobots can also perform operations such as gastric examination and surgical treatment. Including Israel, Google and other institutions in this field have related exploration. But so far, medical nanorobot technology remains in the stage of research and development, and some technical obstacles remain to be cracked.

At present, the application of micro robot / nano robot has attracted the attention of academia, industry and biomedical field. In recent years, especially in nanorobot technology and magnetic drive system, significant progress has been made.
