Magnetic
​Drug Carriers

Contacts: Dr. Anke Klingner, Dr. Mohamed Elwi, Dr. Nesrine El Gohary, Dr. Islam Khalil

General Information: bio-degradable and bio-absorbable magnetic microparticles and nanoparticles have unique potential applications in targeted therapy, sensing, and minimally-invasive interventions. 

1. Drug Delivery using an Electromagnetic System and MIPs

This work addresses the motion control of a cluster of molecularly-imprinted polymers in the three-dimensional space. This  localization is done using an electromagnetic system and is used to release drugs within the vicinity of a soft-tissue simulant. Concentration of the drugs throughout the simulant is tested to verify the proposed targeted drug delivery.

2. ​Targeted Drug Delivery using Molecularly-Imprinted Polymers
and Characterization of the Drug Release

This work addresses the motion control of a cluster of molecularly-imprinted polymers in the three-dimensional space. Molecularly-imprinted polymers contain a drug in their polymer matrix and can be localized using magnetic fields. This localization is done using an electromagnetic system and is used to release drugs.

3. ​Control of Microrobots Against the Flowing Streams Inside
Microfluidic Channels

We will demonstrate closed-loop motion control of molecularly-imprinted polymers inside a fluidic microchannel. The motion control of the molecularly-imprinted polymers will be achieved in a solution with time-varying flow rates, under the influence of the controlled magnetic fields and the pulling magnetic force.

​4. Targeted Drug Delivery using MIPs In Vitro

This project addresses the motion control of molecularly-imprinted polymers in two dimensional-space with applications
towards targeted therapy. An electromagnetic system is developed to allow for the manipulation of the molecularly-imprinted polymers under the influence of the controlled magnetic field gradients. These particles are used to release drugs and achieve targeted therapy.
