Abstract

Abstract : Aqua Sperm Micromotors Aqua sperm based micromotors are used for the efficient destruction of bacterial biofilms in less than one minute. This is their speed and their undulatory locomotion as well as a head size similar to bacterial cells, allowing the Aqua Sperm micromotors to enter and navigate inside the biofilm matrix. More details can be found in article number 2101301 by Martin Pumera and co‐workers.
