Engineering Magnetotactic Bacteria as Medical Microrobots

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are living microorganisms that produce magnetosomes for navigation using the Earth's geomagnetic field. Their built‐in magnetic components, along with their intrinsic and/or modified biological functions, make them one of the most promising platforms for making future living and programmable microrobots.

Cardiac Organoid Model Inspired Micro‐Robot Smart Patch to Treat Myocardial Infarction

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The heart organoid model exhibits the acidic microenvironment characteristic of myocardial infarction, which emerges as a pivotal force propelling the movement of micro‐robots. These micro‐robots, administered through microneedles, can penetrate deep into the tissue, effectively delivering therapeutic payloads to facilitate heart repair.

Study of epoxy shielding material with barium sulphate for development of radiation protection materials in low-dose diagnostic X-ray

Radiation effects and defects in solids (Print), 2021
In radiological work, it is necessary to use radiation protection devices to reduce the negative health effects of radiation. Currently, the most used material for protection is lead, but it has disadvantages such as environmental toxicity. The objective

Radiation Protection

2015
This chapter focuses on the protection of biologic entities from radiation, with an overarching principle being ALARA—as low as reasonably achievable. Radiation exposure is reduced by minimizing time, maximizing distance, and incorporating proper shielding.
