A tiny self-propelled drug-delivery device might someday make taking antibiotics safer and more efficient. Think of it as a tiny submarine scooting around inside your stomach, fueled by the acid there.
Oral antibiotics are commonly prescribed life-saving drugs. Once an antibiotic is swallowed, it takes a trip to the stomach, where there's lots of acid. That stomach acid can break chemical bonds in the antibiotic and deactivate it.

Isaac Asimov getting a royalty?
No Dennis Quaide either?.............
He’s dead, Jim................
I can still see the team pulling whatever those things were off Raquel Welch!
Didn’t we see this with Dennis Quaid in Inner Space?
Antibodies.
YES Raquel Welch.
Does it have a "no tipping" policy?

Sterling Archer was saddened as well.
Yeah, they were so anti-body that they attacked Raquel Welch's body.
She doesn’t move her shoulders (but then who’s looking at shoulders?).
To my surprise, I discover that Isaac Asimov did not write the story behind the movie Fantastic Voyage. The movie was based on a story by Otto Klement and Jerome Bixby. Asimov wrote a novelization of the movie.
From Wikipedia:
Bantam Books obtained the rights for a paperback novelization based on the screenplay and approached Isaac Asimov to write it. Because the novelization was released six months before the movie, many people mistakenly believed the film was based on Asimov's book.
Correction: She doesn’t swing her arms.
To be really safe from stomach acid they should wrap it in the skin of a tapeworm. Those critters seem to be just fine splashing around in acid.
Eggs-actly. What’s the point without the main course? ;-) I’m sure somone will have some recent pics for display purposes.
I stand corrected!
Always thought Asimov wrote the original story. I had the book he did based on it as a kid.
Thanks for the info, sir.
Call Kenny Loggins — looks like Archer is in the “danger zone”.
Ah, yes. antibodies. Lucky antibodies. Thanks! :-)
This passage, in particular, is one which I remember very clearly, because it influenced my path in life:
"Have you ever seen a photograph enlarged, Mr. Grant? Or reduced to microfilm size?"I remember it so clearly that I am able to type a few words from it into Google, and immediately see the passage in the Google Books copy of the original book."Of course."
"Without theory, then, I tell you that the same process can be used on three-dimensional objects; even on a man. We are miniaturized, not as literal objects, but as images; as three-dimensional images manipulated from outside the universe of space-time."
Grant smiled. "Now, teacher, those are just words."
"Yes, but you don't want theory, do you?"
