AI Article Synopsis
- The text describes a new idea for creating dual-action microrobots, called "medibots," that can perform surgeries on individual cells and deliver drugs directly where needed.
- These biocompatible robots are derived from plants and are designed to be safe for use in living organisms.
- The main goal is to help researchers learn how these tiny motors interact within cells to target and eliminate harmful cells, such as cancer cells.
Article Abstract
An innovative concept for the fabrication of dual-action microrobots capable of performing single-cell microsurgery along with a site-directed drug-delivery feature is presented. These multi-action plant-derived biocompatible "medibots" can play a pivotal role in understanding micromotor interactions at the cellular level, aiming toward the destruction of harmful cells (like cancer) among others in living systems.
