Flagellated bacterial motility in polymer solutions
Vincent A. Martinez, Jana Schwarz-Linek, Mathias Reufer +3
It is widely believed that the swimming speed, , of many flagellated bacteria is a non-monotonic function of the concentration, , of high-molecular-weight linear polymers in…
Swimming in a Crystal:
Aidan T. Brown, Ioana D. Vladescu, Angela Dawson +4
We study catalytic Janus swimmers and Escherichia coli bacteria swimming in a two-dimensional colloidal crystal. The Janus swimmers orbit individual colloids and hop between colloi…
Filling an emulsion drop with motile bacteria
I. D. Vladescu, E. J. Marsden, J. Schwarz-Linek +6
We have measured the spatial distribution of motile Escherichia coli inside spherical water droplets emulsified in oil. At low cell concentrations, the cell density peaks at the wa…
