The researchers placed a droplet containing mixtures of a viscous fluid and bacteria on a slide and dropped a tiny particle of nickel onto the droplet. Then the slide was turned over and the particle ...
In a new study published in Advanced Functional Materials ("Light Controlled Biohybrid Microbots"), scientists from Sapienza Universitá di Roma demonstrate biohybrid microbots that harness living ...
These self-propelling microscopic particles use tailor-made viruses to recognize specific bacteria strains. The viruses bind to matching bacteria to form unique sandwich structures that are then ...
