Controlling the Collective Transport of Large Passive Particles With Suspensions of Microorganisms

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Directional light stimuli induce the accumulation of microalgae in suspensions of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. This accumulation triggers large scale bioconvection rolls capable of macroscale transport. Exploiting these bioconvective flows enables to collectively transport of hundreds of large passive particles, paving the way for future applications in ...
