Tagbiomimetic

a study from researchers led by the University of New Mexico engineers biomimetic synthetic RBCs possessing all of their natural counterpart's abilities, plus multiple artificial components. The team states their fabricated RBCs were each given the ability to transport cargos including hemoglobin, drugs, magnetic nanoparticles, and biosensors to enable alien functions, such as oxygen transportation, drug delivery, magnetic manipulation, and toxin detection.
