'Nano-needle' operates on cell
Abstract:
Scientists have performed a delicate surgical operation on a single living cell, using a needle that is just a few billionths of a metre wide.
This "nano-needle" was used together with an atomic force microscope (AFM) to penetrate the membrane of a cell to a depth of one or two micrometres.
