Introduction
Nanorobotics is the emerging technology field creating
machines or robots whose components are at or close
to the scale of a nanometer(10−9 meters).
9/24/2015 3
Types of nano robots
• Nubot
• Bacteria based
• Virus based
• Surface bound Systems
9/24/2015 4
Nubots
• Also known as “DNA
machine”.
• A DNA machine is a
molecular machine
constructed from DNA.
• Similar double helix
structure like the DNA
strands.
9/24/2015 5
Bacteria based micro robot
• Uses a flagellum for
propulsion purposes.
• Use similar mechanisms
as the biological
microorganisms
9/24/2015 6
Bacteria based microrobot
(bacteriobots)
The bacteriobot can be considered as a new type of
active Drug Delivery System with the various useful
properties of a microorganism for synergistic therapy
against incurable diseases
9/24/2015 7
Components of bacteriobots
• Bacteria
1. These bacteria enable the micro robot to move
toward tumors, acting as a combination of micro-
sensor, micro-actuator, and therapeutic agent
E.g. For microrobot actuation, microorganisms with
high motility, such as Escherichia coli (E. coli),
Salmonella typhimurium (S.typhimurium), Serratia
marcescens (S. marcescens),
9/24/2015 8
Micro bead :
The microstructure acts as a therapeutic molecule
containing high amounts of drugs which plays
important role in the treatment of tumor.

Case 1:Bacteria based micro
robot used in cancer treatment
9/24/2015 10
Introduction
• Cancer is the disease caused by an uncontrolled division
of abnormal cells in a part of the body
• Chemotherapy , is the conventional treatment but..
•Damage growing-healthy normal cells blood and hair cells
•Not specific and No continuous drug delivery for tissues
Negative side effects ( anemia , nausea )
9/24/2015 11
Bacteriobot robots
• This research offer an alternative way instead of
chemotherapy
• Bacteria based micro robot ( Bacteriobot )
Bacteriobot = genetically engineered Bacteria +
micro structure bead ( drug )
9/24/2015 12
Why Nano robots ?
• Specific .. target cancer cells but not normal cells
• Depends on biodegradable and biocompatible
materials
• optimal drug quantities delivered to the target cells
9/24/2015 13
How bacteriobot works?
• To be effective , bacteriobot moves toward tumors acting as
combination of
• Micro sensor
• Micro actuator
• Therapeutic agent
9/24/2015 14
Designing
• Tumor model : colorectal cancer , breast cancer 4T1
• Animal model : CT_26 mouse
• Bacteria model : ppGpp S. typhimurium strain
SHJ2037
9/24/2015 15
Making the bacteriobot
9/24/2015 16
How to combine Salmonella to
capsule ?
• To deliver drug to tumor cells
• Salmonella work as mechanical engine
• Micro capsule work as drug container
9/24/2015 17
Engineering the bacteriobot
• It is a fusion between RT* and BT* presents a novel
anti tumor strategy
• Stage 1 : Interaction between biotin – streptavidin
• Biotin found in all living organisms
• Attenuated salmonella genetically modified to
express biotin on the outer membrane of the cell
* RT : Robot technology
* BT : Biotechnology
9/24/2015 18
• High affinity interaction between biotin –
streptavidin
• Biotin can conjugate to many proteins easily let
that protein to interact to with streptavidin
conjugated molecules
9/24/2015 19
• Stage 2 : Development of flow-free chemotactic micro
fluidic chamber
• to evaluate targeting , motility , velocity of bacteriobot
• This device composed of 3 chambers :
Normal cells - Bacteriobots - tumor cells
• Uses fluorescent dyes to see Nano robots target cells
9/24/2015 20
Flow-free chemotactic
microfluidic chamber
9/24/2015 21
• Stage 3 : Tumor targeting and localization of
bacteriobot
• It is the chemotactic response of bacteriobot to the
[con] gradients of various of cancer cells :
• NIH/3T3 , CT_26 ( colorectal cancer )
• 4T1 ( breast cancer )
• Targeting measured by migration of bacteria out of
central region toward the side chambers
9/24/2015 22
Results
9/24/2015 23
9/24/2015 24
Methods:
• Bacterial strains
• Cell culture
• Preparation of cell lysates
• Fabrication of gradient microfludic device
• Fabrication of bacteriobots
• Animal models
9/24/2015 25
Detection:
• Optical bioluminescence imaging
• NIR imaging
9/24/2015 26
Case study 2:Microscopic DNA devices
injected into a leukemia patient in a
bid to destroy abnormal cells
9/24/2015 27
Advantages
• Precise drug delivery
• Easy removal
• Biodegradable and biocompatible materials
• Durability
9/24/2015 28
Disadvantages
• Technological limitations
• Security threats
• Manufacturing cost
9/24/2015 29
Applications
9/24/2015 30
• TREATING ARTERIOSCLEROSIS
9/24/2015 31
•BREAKING UP BLOOD CLOTS
Applications

• This technology is still in research and development phase, only few
primitive designs have been tested.
• All of these current developments in technology directs humans a
step closer to nanorobots and simple, operating nanorobots is the near
future. Nanorobots can theoretically destroy all common diseases of the
2lst century thereby ending much of the pain and suffering.
• Simple everyday illnesses can be cured without ever visiting the
physician. Invasive surgery will be replaced by an operation carried out
by nano-surgical robots. Although research into nanorobots is in its
preliminary stages, the promise of such technology is endless.
