McMaster researchers have developed a way to safely carry potent antibiotics through the body, so it can selectively attack and kill harmful bacteria.
McMaster researchers are modifying red blood cells to transport viral agents which can safely trigger the immune system to protect the body against SARS-CoV-2, creating a promising new vehicle for vaccine delivery.
A team of physicists from McMaster University has developed a process to modify red blood cells so they can be used to distribute drugs throughout the body, which could specifically target infections or treat catastrophic diseases such as cancer or Alzheimer’s.
