A Power-Efficient Propulsion Method for Magnetic Microrobots [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Advanced Robotic Systems, 2014
Current magnetic systems for microrobotic navigation consist of assemblies of electromagnets, which allow for the wireless accurate steering and propulsion of sub-millimetric bodies. However, large numbers of windings and/or high currents are needed in order to generate suitable magnetic fields and gradients. This means that magnetic navigation systems

Improving guidewire-mediated steerability of a magnetically actuated flexible microrobot

open access: yesMicro and Nano Systems Letters, 2018
Here, we develop a flexible microrobot enhancing the steerability of a conventional guidewire. To improve steerability, a microrobot is attached to the tip of the guidewire and guided using an external magnetic field generated by an electromagnetic coil ...

Development of Cell-Carrying Magnetic Microrobots with Bioactive Nanostructured Titanate Surface for Enhanced Cell Adhesion

open access: yesMicromachines, 2021
Cell-carrying magnet-driven microrobots are easily affected by blood flow or body fluids during transportation in the body, and thus cells often fall off from the microrobots. To reduce the loss of loaded cells, we developed a microrobot with a bioactive

Pick-up of fluoroquinolones from the aqueous phase via magnetically propeled microrobots: kinetics, thermodynamics, and site energy distribution analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Removing fluoroquinolones (FQs) in marine culture tailwater is crucial for the coastal marine environment. The application of a bacteria-based microrobot for FQ removal was discussed. Norfloxacin (NOR) and levofloxacin (LEV) had static maximum adsorption
