Physical Intelligence News 26-04-2018 Multifunktionaler Mikroschwimmer transportiert Fracht und zerstört sich selbst Forscher entwickeln einen frei beweglichen Biohybrid-Mikroschwimmer, der in der Lage ist, Medikamente zu transportieren, die in einem roten Blutkörperchen eingekapselt sind. Ein angedocktes Bakterium fungiert als Propeller, um ihn vorwärts zu bewegen. Hat er sein Ziel erreicht und seine Ladung abgeliefert, können die Wissenschaftler den Mikroschwimmer mittels Infrarotlicht zerstören. Yunus Alapan Oncay Yasa Metin Sitti

Smart Nanoplasmonics News 13-04-2018 Nachahmung natürlicher Bewegungen im Nanobereich mit Hilfe der DNA-Origami Technik Forscher am Max-Planck-Institut für Intelligente Systeme, der Universität Heidelberg und der Universität Stuttgart nutzen eine Technik namens DNA-Origami, um eine Vielzahl lebenswichtiger Bewegungen in der Natur nachzuahmen – wie zum Beispiel die Gleitbewegung von Proteinmotoren bei der Zellteilung. Ihre nur wenige Nanometer große Erfindung, tausendmal kleiner als ein menschliches Haar, zeigt einen ersten Versuch, die geheimnisvolle Arbeitsweise natürlicher „Maschinen“ in lebenden Zellen nachzubilden.
