[ad_1] Many types of motile cells, such as bacteria in our guts and sperms in the female reproductive tract, need to push themselves through tight spaces filled with viscous fluid. In recent years, the movement of these “micro swimmers” has been mimicked in the design of micro- and nanoscale self-propelled …

[ad_1] Scientists have developed an optical elastography technique that could revolutionize the accuracy and ease with which healthcare professionals can detect biomechanical changes in cells and tissues. A study derived from an international collaboration between the University of Exeter, the Gloucestershire Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust, the University of Perugia (Italy) …

[ad_1] Tokyo, Japan – Researchers at the University of Tokyo Institute of Industrial Sciences (UTokyo-IIS) have designed novel linear nanomotors that can be moved in controlled directions using light. This work paves the way for new microfluidics, including lab-on-a-chip systems with optically driven pumps and valves. The world of nano-scale …
