Radical attack on live cells

41

Is there a way to chemically manipulate small, confined areas on cellular surfaces? Scientists have developed a microfluidic probe to send a flow of free radicals on live cells and track the outcome using fluorescence imaging. This approach makes it possible for the first time to generate a reaction zone of free radicals with controlled size and concentration for subcellular research.
