Selective Trapping of DNA using Glass Microcapillaries
Georg Rempfer, Sascha Ehrhardt, Nadanai Laohakunakorn +4
We show experimentally that a cheap glass microcapillary can accumulate λ-phage DNA at its tip and deliver the DNA into the capillary using a combination of electro-osmotic flow, p…
Understanding the Onset of Oscillatory Swimming in Microchannels
Joost de Graaf, Arnold J. T. M. Mathijssen, Marc Fabritius +3
Self-propelled colloids (swimmers) in confining geometries follow trajectories determined by hydrodynamic interactions with the bounding surfaces. However, typically these interact…
The Efficiency of Self-Phoretic Propulsion Mechanisms with Surface Reaction Heterogeneity
Patrick Kreissl, Christian Holm, Joost de Graaf
We consider the efficiency of self-phoretic colloidal particles (swimmers) as a function of the heterogeneity in the surface reaction rate. The set of fluid, species, and electrost…
Lattice-Boltzmann Hydrodynamics of Anisotropic Active Matter
Joost de Graaf, Henri Menke, Arnold J. T. M. Mathijssen +3
A plethora of active matter models exist that describe the behavior of self-propelled particles (or swimmers), both with and without hydrodynamics. However, there are few studies t…
