Plastic nanospheres to hunt out cancer. : "While some nanospheres seem to be toxic to human cells and kill them before they get a chance to deliver the drug, others latch onto the cells, or are taken up by them.
Once attached or inside the cell, the nanospheres release the drug slowly as planned."
There is a feeling now that nanotechnology will be a thing we are increasingly familiar with. I have heard there are problems with it , but it doesn't alter the fact that this is what researchers are working on and there are some real benefits for us. Like anything else , we shall hopefully improve the good side without increasing the already copious amounts of human misery. If nanospheres could hunt out cancer cells and destroy them , it would be a massive break through in chemotherapy. Yes, there is a long way to go with this research, but it is exciting and you can see sooner or later we shall get rid of this disgusting diease and it will be thanks to people like Dr. Stenzel.
