magnets in their bodies
Involves new studies and concepts of magnetic fields
produced in, or applied to biological systems as a
diagnostic approach or a medical treatment.
Recent breakthroughs:
1. Magnetic labeling of stem cells
2. Cancer cell therapy using principles of magnetism
Stem cells are being tracked using magnetic particles
while they are delivered into damaged tissues.
During mitosis:
• All the sister chromatids lined up along
the midline of cell but are still adjoined by
centromere
• The centromere is targeted by spindles
emerging from centrioles at opposite
poles of the cell.
• These spindles have a polarity in charge
due to the molecular composition.

• The spindles will pull the sister chromatids
in opposite direction and will elongate the
cell for division.
