A new biohybrid micro-robot is developed by capturing bovine sperm cells inside magnetic microtubes that use the motile cells as driving force. These micro-bio-robots can be remotely controlled by an external magnetic field. The performance of micro-robots is described in dependence on tube radius, cell penetration, and temperature. The combination of a biological power source and a microdevice is a compelling approach to the development of new microrobotic devices with fascinating future applications.
一种新型的生物混合微型机器人是通过将牛精子细胞捕获在使用运动细胞作为驱动力的磁性微管中来开发的。这些微型生物机器人可以通过外部磁场进行远程控制。微型机器人的性能取决于管半径、细胞穿透和温度。生物电源和微器件的结合是开发具有迷人未来应用的新型微机器人的一种很有吸引力的方法。
