Zusammenfassung:A loading system for providing a cell suitable for delivery of an agent to a vertebrate, the system comprise a loading module for loading a cell with an agent; and a sensitization module in fluid communication with the loading module, the sensitization module for sensitizing a cell to an energy field, such that said cell is induced to release the agent upon exposure to said energy field. The system can be used to transform a cell, such as a red blood cell, into a delivery vehicle for delivering a therapeutic agent and/or an imaging agent to a vertebrate, and in particular, to a mammal, such as a human being.
