"Printing" pharmaceuticals with a 3D printer
A Nature Chemistry paper by researchers from the University of Glasgow describes a process for "printing" pharmaceutical compounds from various feedstocks, and supposes a future in which we have diagnosis/medication manufacturies at home. The process uses an off-the-shelf 3D printer technology to assemble pre-filled "vessels" in ways that create the desired chemical reaction in order [...]Original Link: http://feeds.boingboing.net/~r/boingboing/iBag/~3/auOaksRWg48/printing-pharmaceuticals-w.html
