March 27, 2008- The world’s first molecular deliver system for molecular communication has been introduced to the world today thanks to the joint efforts of researchers at NTT DoCoMo, Inc. and Professor Kazuo Sutoh of The University of Tokyo’s Department of Life Sciences. DoCoMo has been researching technologies such as these within the field of molecular communication already in search of a new advancement in molecular communication. DoCoMo’s goal is to offer a means of transmitting information about living organisms’ biochemical conditions. For example, information such as excitement, emotion, stress and disease could be gathered and studied via this new technology. By creating mechanical work from chemical energy a deliver system could be created to transport specific molecules.

Since this system would run complete independently, there would be no need for a power source. This could in tern lead to the development of a biochemical analyzer (or biochip). This microchip that would be about the size of your fingertip could be used for biological and chemical analysis. This new technology could have dozens of applications in several different fields including medicine and health care. Diseases could be diagnosed by simply analyzing a bead of sweat or a drop of blood. Data could then be generated about the disease and sent wirelessly to specialists through a mobile phone. This type of new technology would be especially useful in health checks and preventative medicine in remote areas where high tech medical equipment is not readily available. This new technology could be the beginning of a new era in disease treatment and control.
