Introducen chips como sensores mecánicos dentro de óvulos para medir las primeras fases de desarrollo
Científicos del Instituto de Microelectrónica de Barcelona (IMB-CNM), y de la Universidad de Bath crean e introducen estos dispositivos en óvulos. El chip funciona como sensor mecánico y es extremadamente minúsculo: tiene una longitud tres veces más pequeña que el diámetro de un cabello humano y un grosor tres veces menor que el de un virus como el SARS-CoV-2. El trabajo, publicado en Nature Materials, mide las fuerzas que reorganizan el interior del óvulo desde que se introduce el espermatozoide hasta que el embrión se divide en dos células.
