Respirocytes

*more than one correct answer and must get all to get question correct

• are nanodevices that can lower blood glucose.

• are nanodevices that act as artificial red blood cells.

• are nanodevices that can remove carbon monoxide from the bloodstream.

• are nanodevices powered by glucose.rere

Nanomedicine

• is a specific study of medicine that focuses primarily on analyzing SNP profiles to deliver personalized treatments.

• applies the field of understanding and controlling matter at extremely small dimensions.

• is the use of robots to perform surgical procedures that is currently done by humans.

• is a field that develops medical interventions at the molecular and cellular levels.

Scientists use _______________ to view nanoscale objects.

• scanning electron microscopes

• cameras

• visible light waves

• compound microscopes

Respirocytes can be used to treat

• diabetes.

• cancer.

• patients that have breathed in poisonous gases.

• patients that need oxygen due to accidents such as drowning and choking.

Nanotechnology can be used

• to build drug delivery systems smaller than cells.

• to diagnose cells that may be cancerous even before tumorigenesis.

• to prolong life double or triple the current average lifespan.

• to personalize treatment for individual patients.

Most nanodevices are

• about 100-1000 times larger than water molecules.

• about 10,000 times smaller than white blood cells.

• about 10-100 times larger than water molecules.

• about 0.1 times larger than water molecules.

• about 100-1000 times smaller than white blood cells.

This nanodevice is more of a diagnostic tool that can replace biopsies by using small crystals of different sizes in latex beads that emit different wavelengths of light when stimulated with UV radiation when bound to specific regions of DNA, giving off a specific "bar codes" for a specific sequence of DNA.

• nanoshells

• dendrimers

• nanotubes

• quantum dots

• cantilevers

Nanoshells

• are gold beads that heat up with infrared light that target cancer cells and kill these cells by heat.

• use small crystals that are activated by UV radiation to give a special "bar code" for specific sequences of DNA.

• are nanodevices made of levers that bend in the presence of certain marker molecules that can report the presence of precancerous cells.

• are branching man-made molecules that can target specific cells, kill those cells with a therapeutic agent, then report back when those cells have been successfully killed.

• are nanodevices that can make DNA sequence much faster by passing through single strands of DNA through the device.

Which of the following nanodevices can serve as a therapeutic agent (treatment)?

*may be more than one correct answer - must check all the correct responses

• nanotubes

• quantum dots

• nanopores

• nanoshells

• dendrimers

Cantilevers

• can analyze DNA sequences much faster by passing through single strands of DNA through the device.

• target and destroy cells that are infected or that are cancerous by using intense infrared heat.

• are particles that contain molecules that target specific cells (like those that are damages, infected or cancerous), treat or destroy them, and report back to a computer the results of the treatment.

• are diagnostic tools that can detect the presence of small amounts of molecules associated with a disease, thus detecting a disease at the early stages.

• are small crystals that target specific sequences of DNA such as those involved in cancer or viruses and label with a "bar code" using UV radiation to mark their location.
