Can pulsed electromagnetic fields trigger on-demand drug release from high-tm magnetoliposomes? [PDF]
Recently, magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) have been used to trigger drug release from magnetoliposomes through a magneto-nanomechanical approach, where the mechanical actuation of the MNPs is used to enhance the membrane permeability.

Light- and magnetically actuated FePt microswimmers [PDF]
AbstractExternally controlled microswimmers offer prospects for transport in biological research and medical applications. This requires biocompatibility of the swimmers and the possibility to tailor their propulsion mechanisms to the respective low Reynolds number environment.

Piezoresistor-Embedded Multifunctional Magnetic Microactuators for Implantable Self-Clearing Catheter [PDF]
Indwelling catheters are used widely in medicine to treat various chronic medical conditions. However, chronic implantation of catheters often leads to a premature failure due to biofilm accumulation.

Surface micromachined magnetic actuators [PDF]
A surface micromachined micromagnetic actuator (also called a magnetic flap) as an integrated part of an active micro electromechanical fluid control system is described. The flaps are fabricated by surface micromachining technology and are capable of achieving large deflections (above 100 /spl mu/m) with magnetic forces in stationary air.
