Bioinspired Soft Microrobots with Precise Magneto-Collective Control for Microvascular Thrombolysis.

Advanced materials (Deerfield Beach, Fla.)
New-era soft microrobots for biomedical applications need to mimic the essential structures and collective functions of creatures from nature. Biocompatible interfaces, intelligent functionalities, and precise locomotion control in a collective manne...

Autonomous Biohybrid Urchin-Like Microperforator for Intracellular Payload Delivery.

Small (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany)
A magnetic urchin-like microswimmer based on sunflower pollen grain (SPG) that can pierce the cancer cell membrane and actively deliver therapeutic drugs is reported. These drug loaded microperforators are fabricated on a large scale by sequentially ...

Active generation and magnetic actuation of microrobotic swarms in bio-fluids.

Nature communications
In nature, various types of animals will form self-organised large-scale structures. Through designing wireless actuation methods, microrobots can emulate natural swarm behaviours, which have drawn extensive attention due to their great potential in ...

A Multi-Mode Rehabilitation Robot With Magnetorheological Actuators Based on Human Motion Intention Estimation.

IEEE transactions on neural systems and rehabilitation engineering : a publication of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society
Lower extremity paralysis has become common in recent years, and robots have been developed to help patients recover from it. This paper presents such a robotic system that allows for two working modes, the robot-active mode and human-active mode. Th...

Magnetically Actuated Heterogeneous Microcapsule-Robot for the Construction of 3D Bioartificial Architectures.

ACS applied materials & interfaces
Core-shell microcapsules as one type of the most attractive carriers and reactors have been widely applied in the fields of drug screening and tissue engineering owing to their excellent biocompatibility and semi-permeability. Yet, the spatial organi...

Use of Machine Learning in the Analysis of Indoor ELF MF Exposure in Children.

International journal of environmental research and public health
Characterization of children exposure to extremely low frequency (ELF) magnetic fields is an important issue because of the possible correlation of leukemia onset with ELF exposure. Cluster analysis-a Machine Learning approach-was applied on personal...

Magnetic body alignment in migratory songbirds: a computer vision approach.

The Journal of experimental biology
Several invertebrate and vertebrate species have been shown to align their body relative to the geomagnetic field. Many hypotheses have been proposed to explain the adaptive significance of magnetic body alignment outside the context of navigation. H...

3D Fabrication of Fully Iron Magnetic Microrobots.

Small (Weinheim an der Bergstrasse, Germany)
Biocompatibility and high responsiveness to magnetic fields are fundamental requisites to translate magnetic small-scale robots into clinical applications. The magnetic element iron exhibits the highest saturation magnetization and magnetic susceptib...

Biodegradable Thermomagnetically Responsive Soft Untethered Grippers.

ACS applied materials & interfaces
Soft-robotic devices such as polymeric microgrippers offer the possibility for pick and place of fragile biological cargo in hard-to-reach conduits with potential applications in drug delivery, minimally invasive surgery, and biomedical engineering. ...

Investigation of magnetic silica with thermoresponsive chitosan coating for drug controlled release and magnetic hyperthermia application.

Materials science & engineering. C, Materials for biological applications
In this study, a drug delivery system for chemo-hyperthermia applications is proposed and fabricated. The delivery system consists of magnetic-silica (MagSi) particles being encapsulated within a pH/thermo-responsive chitosan‑g‑N‑isopropylacrylamide ...
