Cancer tumors can be killed on the spot using these bacteria-based microrobots - Interesting Engineering

By modifying E. coli bacteria using magnetic nanoparticles and nanoliposomes, scientists have found a bacteria-mediated treatment method that could kill cancer tumors grown inside a human body.

Preventing the growth of cancer cells in the human body is among the biggest challenges of modern medical science. However, now a team of researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Sys… [+5883 chars]
