>From the ingestion chamber, the targetted microbe would be blended by mechanical blades in a morcellation chamber, then passed to a digestion chamber where the processed remains of the invader would be chemically analyzed before being further broken down by a specifically selected sequence of 40 engineered enzymes, into biologically neutral effluent (mononucleotides, amino acids, free fatty acids, simple sugars and glycerol.) which would be released harmlessly back into the bloodstream through an exhaust port on the back of the device, where it could be used by the body's molecular machinery (cells) for its nutritional content.

>Getting microbivores into the body would be a matter of simply introducing them intravenously. Preliminary estimates suggest microbivores would be around 80 times more efficient, and about 1,000 times faster acting than our natural white blood cells.
