Polar features in the flagellar propulsion of E. coli bacteria
S. Bianchi, F. Saglimbeni, A. Lepore +1
E. coli bacteria swim following a run and tumble pattern. In the run state all flagella join in a single helical bundle that propels the cell body along approximately straight path…
Generalized energy equipartition in harmonic oscillators driven by active baths
Claudio Maggi, Matteo Paoluzzi, Nicola Pellicciotta +3
We study experimentally and numerically the dynamics of colloidal beads confined by a harmonic potential in a bath of swimming E. coli bacteria. The resulting dynamics is well appr…
Motility fractionation of bacteria by centrifugation
Claudio Maggi, Alessia Lepore, Jacopo Solari +2
Centrifugation is a widespread laboratory technique used to separate mixtures into fractions characterized by a specific size, weight or density. We demonstrate that centrifugation…
