UCL Scientists Develop Magnetic Nanoparticles to Track Neural Stem Cells
Azo Nanotechnology Neural stem cells have recently been shown to possess qualities that make them promising candidates for stem cell replacement therapy and spinal cord reconstruction. Researchers at University College London have recently discovered magnetic nanoparticles that could be used to track neural stem cells following their injection. This would allow for the stem cells…
