- Researchers Track How Drugs are Released into Cells Using Fluorescent Imaging
Researchers at Purdue University have, for the first time, discovered a visual method of tracking exactly how a drug is released into a cell. This discovery will aid in the creation of very specific drugs that are only delivered to targeted diseased cells.

in Public bookmarks - Ultrasound Aids in Drug Delivery
Using ultrasound creates holes in the cell membrane, which allows entry of larger molecules. These holes are large enough to allow entry of larger oral drugs, proteins and DNA segments used in gene therapy.
The Georgia Institute of Technology and Emory University in Atlanta have reported that ultrasound can be used to allow easier ...
