Quantitative Rapid Magnetic Immunoassay for Sensitive Toxin Detection in Food: Non-Covalent Functionalization of Nanolabels vs. Covalent Immobilization.

Toxins
In this study, we present a novel and ultrasensitive magnetic lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) tailored for the precise detection of zearalenone, a mycotoxin with significant implications for human and animal health. A versatile and straightforward me...

Design and build of small-scale magnetic soft-bodied robots with multimodal locomotion.

Nature protocols
Small-scale magnetic soft-bodied robots can be designed to operate based on different locomotion modes to navigate and function inside unstructured, confined and varying environments. These soft millirobots may be useful for medical applications wher...

Magnetic soft robotics to manipulate the extracellular matrix in vitro.

Cell
The importance of dynamic mechanical control over the cellular microenvironment has long been appreciated. In a recent issue of Device, Raman and colleagues design a clever yet generalizable tool to achieve this, illustrating magnetic stimulation of ...

Chitosan-based magnetic bioadsorbent beads from eucalyptus sawdust waste for the Direct Violet-51 dye remediation: Eco-friendly strategy and statistical optimization.

International journal of biological macromolecules
In the present study, a new application was proposed for the eucalyptus sawdust waste, which is an environmental passive. Three adsorbent materials composed of chitosan (CS), sawdust (CSW), and magnetic beads (CSWF) were developed and used for the Di...

Magnetic Soft Robot for Minimally Invasive Urethral Catheter Biofilm Eradication.

ACS nano
Catheter-related biofilm infection remains the main problem for millions of people annually, affecting morbidity, mortality, and quality of life. Despite the recent advances in the prevention of biofilm formation, alternative methods for biofilm prev...

Deep Neural Network-Based Electron Microscopy Image Recognition for Source Distinguishing of Anthropogenic and Natural Magnetic Particles.

Environmental science & technology
Deep learning models excel at image recognition of macroscopic objects, but their applications to nanoscale particles are limited. Here, we explored their potential for source-distinguishing environmental particles. Transmission electron microscopy (...

Programmable magnetic robot (ProMagBot) for automated nucleic acid extraction at the point of need.

Lab on a chip
Upstream sample preparation remains the bottleneck for point-of-need nucleic acid testing due to its complexity and time-consuming nature. Sample preparation involves extracting, purifying, and concentrating nucleic acids from various matrices. These...

Biohybrid magnetic microrobots: An intriguing and promising platform in biomedicine.

Acta biomaterialia
Biohybrid magnetic microrobots (BMMs) have emerged as an exciting class of microrobots and have been considered as a promising platform in biomedicine. Many microorganisms and body's own cells show intriguing properties, such as morphological charact...

Biodegradable Magnetic Hydrogel Robot with Multimodal Locomotion for Targeted Cargo Delivery.

ACS applied materials & interfaces
Recent strides in the development of untethered miniature robots have shown the advantages of diverse actuation methods, flexible maneuverability, and precise locomotion control, which has made miniature robots attractive for biomedical applications ...

CochleRob: Parallel-Serial Robot to Position a Magnetic Actuator around a Patient's Head for Intracochlear Microrobot Navigation.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Our work introduces a new robotic solution named CochleRob, which is used for the administration of super-paramagnetic antiparticles as drug carriers into the human cochlea for the treatment of hearing loss caused by damaged cochlea. This novel robot...
