Thousands of researchers globally are working around the clock to develop a vaccine to attack the SARS-COV-2 virus. However, researchers in the nanoengineering laboratories are taking a different way towards dealing with the SARS-COV-2 infection. Besides boosting the immune system to attack and kill the virus, the researchers have opted to create a defense mechanism. The mechanism is to work by shielding healthy human cells that are affected by the virus. The strategy is straightforward as it employs the creating of decoy structures looking like the human cells that the SARS-COV-2 attacks. These decoy cells can then attract and later neutralize the virus, leaving the immune cells healthy.
For the decoy cells to be made, researchers gathered the outer membranes of immune or long cells and wrap them around a core designed from tiny, biodegradable particles. The decoy cells are made to resemble the human cells they are impersonating. These cells are also nanosponges as they can soak up any dangerous pathogens that may attack the cells they are impersonating. Once the virus is locked by these decoy cells…
