Magnetic Microrobots as a Platform for Cell Clean Up.

ABSTRACT: Mobile magnetic microrobots have been extensively used in a wide range of biomedical applications due to their numerous advantages. Magnetic microrobots in particular have been developed and shown great potential over the past two decades for the manipulation and migration of both single cells and cell aggregates. The efficient clearance of cell aggregates is crucial to prevent uncontrolled cell proliferation, tissue damage, and invasive surgeries, especially for those related to the vascular system. In this work, we showed cellular manipulation and mobility to achieve cellular clean up on Human Liver Cancer (HepG2) cells by using two types of untethered magnetic microrobots that are different in type and size. We performed the cellular clean up in the microchannel, which can demonstrate t
