BEIJING, Dec. 17 (Xinhua) -- The following is a summary of published science and technology news of China:

NEW WAY FOR TUMOR TARGETING

Scientists from China have developed a method for constructing sequence-controlled glycooligomers that enhances the tumor targeting efficiency.

The study was published on Friday in the journal Cell Reports Physical Science by researchers from Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology (SIAT) under the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Henan University and other institutes.

LENGTHENED LONG MARCH-5

China's newly-launched Long March-5 rocket has for the first time used an 18.5-meter-long fairing, setting a new height benchmark for China's carrier rockets in commission.

The rocket, coded as Long March-5 Y6, blasted off at 9:41 p.m. (Beijing Time) from the Wenchang Spacecraft Launch Site on the southern island province of Hainan on Friday, sending a high-orbit optical remote sensing satellite into its planned orbit.

MEDICAL ROBOT

Chinese researchers have proposed an on-wall-rotating strategy for untethered magnetic millirobots to move upstream in blood vessels, according to a study published in the journal IEEE Xplore.

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is one of the leading causes of death worldwide, and approximately 80 percent of CVD deaths are caused by heart attack and stroke.

Researchers from the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology under the Chinese Academy of Sciences and the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology have proposed a design scheme of streamlined millirobots and an on-wall-rotating strategy that is easier for clinical application. Enditem
