MIT researchers developed a way to make cells detach from surfaces on demand, using electrochemically generated bubbles. The system could keep bioreactors and other cell-growing systems clean, accelerating the growth of carbon-absorbing algae and lifesaving cell therapies.

    You know what’s worse for bioprocessing than sticky cells? Bubbles. The article implies this solves everything, when in reality it works on an edge case. Mammalian cells, and most cells lacking a tough outer wall, would never tolerate bubbles.

      What happens when they interact with bubbles?

      MIT is built on headlines.

          The world if even 1% of MIT headlines were true:

            Sure, but trying and failing is the only way we’ve ever accomplished anything.

              If MIT headlines were food we’d all be happy and fat.
