Magnetisable particle and an AIDS virus antibody are bind together because of their positive and negative charges. If the virus is present, the antibody recognises and sticks to it... what a wide variety of roles nanoparticles can play, particularly in the biomedical field!!!!

  • THIS IS NOW?!!!

  • @moocowmoocowmoocow it's complexer that it sounds..

  • Why not place them in a rapidly changing magnetic field heating the conductive nanoparticle and kiling (denaturing) the virus?

  • Can you tell me what program this is from?

  • @NunoOliveira2009 They could remove it by making the nanoparticles magnetized and taking them out of the body by means of a magnetic field. But i think that the condensation of the particles, with the antibodies and the HIV particles would make them more visible to the immune system and could be more easily attacked.

  • By removed I mean digested by lynphocytes.

    But another way is, since they are magnetic iron oxides, you can apply exterior localized force fields to the particles. You can literally pull them to a better location to be extracted, burnt, whatever. Since you pull them to a single spot, you can better trace them in the blood using MRI or other techniques.

    Bahh I dont know.

  • So what would pull the nano particle that had the newly connected HIV virus OUT of the body?

    How would they do that?

    So they can get the HIV virus to connect to the nano particle, but then how do they REMOVE it?

  • whoo nano tech is awesome

  • ..what the heck?!! x3

  • superb
