ScienceDaily (June 15, 2010) — Dutch researchers Roeland Nolte and Jeroen Cornelissen have successfully converted a virus into a unique drug distributor. They removed all of the dangerous material from the virus so that empty, semipermeable particles remained. They subsequently joined these particles together, yet even more important: they also succeeded in separating them again -- a world first. With this discovery the researchers have blazed a trail for a new use of drugs.
