Abstract
This chapter introduces tumor-targeting bacteriobots. In the first part, the fabrication of microstructures as a theragnostic part of the bacteriobot using biocompatible materials, such as poly lactic-co-glycolic acid (PLGA), and poly ethylene glycol (PEG), is explained. Then, the motility control of bacteriobots is explained. At the end of the chapter, the tumor-targeting property of bacteriobots is evaluated through in vitro and in vivo tests. This chapter contains protocols and procedures ...
