    Scientists have developed a novel method for storing biological materials in the form of a pill or a tablet, which dissolves in water for on-demand use. The innovation could overcome current limitations involving in the storage and handling of products derived from living cells used for a variety of health care and scientific research purposes, including pharmaceuticals and diagnostic testing tools.
