Delivering Drugs to the Brain
Filed in archive Medical on July 17, 2008
The human brain does not have a standard blood supply like many other organs in the body. It is protected by something called the blood-brain barrier (BBB). The BBB protects our brain from chemicals, drugs, and other toxins. Because of this barrier, it can be difficult to deliver therapeutic drugs directly to the brain and treat diseases. However, bioconjugated quantum rods and targeted probes may change all that. This nanoparticle-based concept may allow doctors to send certain drugs through the BBB and even use nanoprobes to diagnose different brain disorders. View the abstract here. I'm constantly amazed when I see where nanotechnology is taking us in the medical field.

i had nano technology used on me illegaly by my dr. His name is Dr. Keneth Carbone, Tri-City medical center Avon, Ohio. the thing is it saved my life. I had been stabbed in my belly button and i was going to die from the wound and infection because i never went to the hospital. My doctor found my t-cell count was through the roof. I touched a small black box. it was absorbed into my skin. i remember later having it removed. it looked like liquid metal coming out of my hand. It was a magnet i think that removed it from me. also i had a clicking noise in my head. it was gone when the technology was taken out of my body. the doctor denies every thing except that i got stabbed. the kid who stabbed me claims Dr. carbone paid him to stab me to perform a test using nano particals he got from california. i have a mark on my hand from the nano coming out my hand. i have asked other Dr. about the marks. he says trauma happened to my hand. i want justice. please help. this is not a joke or a hoax. i want revenge. i want an apology from carbone. sincerely, Samuel Dane Moog
