Needless to say, the human body does not produce hydrogen peroxide needed to
fuel nanomotors, so Wang and his colleagues are working on ways to synthesize it from glucose.
Not exact matches
They found that the local concentration of catalytic product helping
fuel their movement leads to a reversal of the direction of the collective movement of
nanomotors, provided that they are in high enough concentration.
A case in point is the field of chemical
nanomotors [5], where a synthetic micro - or nanostructure immersed in a chemical
fuel can self - propel and even show chemotaxis (see Fig. 2).
