Entry #29: Nano-Terminator



Researchers in North Carolina have developed a new type of way to deliver cancer fighting drugs. They call it the "Nano-Terminator" and it is a liquid metal that is injected directly into the patient. The metal will target cancer cells more directly and the metal that is used to deliver the anti-cancer agents actually helps enhance the effects. The metal is supposed to be biodegradable so it has low toxicity levels. So far tests have only been performed on mice but shows promise.
