4D Printed Soft Microactuator for Particle Manipulation via Surrounding Medium Variation (Small 40/2024)
Soft Actuators In article number 2311951, Haibo Yu, Wen Jung Li, and co-workers fabricated soft microactuators, designed to respond to environmental stimuli, using heterogeneous 4D printing techniques. A series of microgrippers, integrated into a 3D mobile platform, demonstrate precise particle capture, movement, and release by modulating local pH levels. Additionally, the static capture of individual red blood cells in a biocompatible environment has been successfully achieved.
