Magneto-Catalytic Janus Micromotors for Selective Inactivation of Bacteria Biofilms [PDF]
Janus micromotors are a unique class of materials whose surfaces have two or more distinct physical properties, allowing thus for two types of chemistry to occur simultaneously. Judicious design of the micromotor structure allows to incorporate different functionalities in a single unit to adapt the propulsion behaviour along with the incorporation of ...

Transition metal dichalcogenide-based Janus micromotors for on-the-fly Salmonella detection
AbstractJanus micromotors encapsulating transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) and modified with a rhodamine (RhO)-labeled affinity peptide (RhO-NFMESLPRLGMH) are used here for Salmonella enterica endotoxin detection. The OFF–ON strategy relies on the specific binding of the peptide with the TMDs to induce fluorescence quenching (OFF state); which is ...
