By using floating liquid marbles, cells can freely associate and form natural structures as they would normally within the human body."
"Liquid marbles are a remarkably simply way to culture cells in 3d, "says Dr St john."A droplet of liquid that contains the cells is placed upon a carpet of teflon powder to create a liquid marble
which can then be floated on cell culture medium.""By having an air interface between the liquid marble and the cell culture medium upon
which it floats, the liquid marble easily rotates.""This allows the cells within the liquid marbles to freely associate to form natural structures without the confines imposed upon them by other 3d culturing methods."
"Floating liquid marbles have been known for almost 200 years. In 1830, British explorer Alexander Burnes was travelling through
what is now Pakistan when he observed the Indus river merging with the sea. He noted that"round globules filled with water"floated on the seawater and formed when the freshwater detached sand from the sand banks."
"Burnes probably didn't think they could be used to help develop a therapy for spinal cord repair,
'"says Dr St john. The floating liquid marble technique can also be used to grow many other cell types in 3d

The new concoction is composed of powdered marble, tranexamic acid which blocks a clot-dissolving enzyme and the clotting enzyme thrombin.

A marble countertop, for example, could be rigged to charge a wireless coffeemaker and a blender along with a variety of phones, tablets and computers as needed.
