![]() ![]() On this basis, a three degree of freedom magnetic drive system is developed to drive the capsule micro robot to reach the destination along the predetermined trajectory in the low Reynolds number environment, and the magnetic field performance of the magnetic drive system is simulated and analyzed. The analysis and simulation results show that the size of the capsule microrobots can be controlled by the flow rate ratio of two phases in the microfluidic chip, and when the flow rate of the outer phase is 20 times that of the inner phase in the microfluidic chip, the irregular and multi-core capsule microrobots can be prepared. ![]() In order to prepare capsule microrobots of different sizes, a triaxial microfluidic chip is designed and built, and the formation mechanism of three flow phases including plug flow phase, bullet flow phase and droplet phase during the preparation of capsule microrobots is studied. In this work, the hydrogel-based capsule microrobots is used to wrap drugs and deliver drugs in blood vessels. Microrobots for targeted drug delivery in blood vessels have attracted increasing interest from researchers. ![]() ![]() “The luminous latest from Charles unfolds in a series of short lyrics over the course of a year, holding time's progression in a delicate balance with a changing self.

The Disappearing Spoon, in a series of anecdotes, interesting facts and stories, describes how each element relates to human history, finance, mythology, conflict, the arts, medicine and the lives of the scientists who discovered them. Not another book about the periodic table? Actually, I enjoyed this one very much, as it is not the usual history from Mendeleev’s first attempt to tabulate the elements to the variety of different physical forms of the table available today, nor is it a description of the physical and chemical properties, uses and applications etc of each element in turn. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Fourteen year old Caroline is caught in the violent web of war her Patriot father is imprisoned, her Loyalist brother Johnny is wounded, her best friend is hanged by the British before her eyes, and her sister is fast becoming the doxy of the cruel British officer who has commandeered their house.
