Abstract:Regulating macroscopic fluid flow by catalytic harnessing of chemical energy could potentially provide a solution for powerless microfluidic devices. Earlier reports have shown that surface-anchored enzymes can actuate the surrounding fluid in the presence of the respective substrate in a concentration-dependent manner. It is also crucial to have control over the flow speed of a self-powered enzyme micropump in various applications where controlled dosing and mixing are required. However, modulating the flow s… Show more
