Bacteriabots: Bioadhesive Bacterial Microswimmers for Targeted Drug Delivery in the Urinary and Gastrointestinal Tracts (Adv. Sci. 6/2017)

A new concept of anchoring bacteria‐driven microswimmers to epithelial cells for targeted drug delivery application is reported by Metin Sitti and co‐workers in article number 1700058. Non‐pathogenic Escherichia Coli bacteria is attached to particles which could potentially encapsulate therapeutic d...

description A new concept of anchoring bacteria‐driven microswimmers to epithelial cells for targeted drug delivery application is reported by Metin Sitti and co‐workers in article number 1700058. Non‐pathogenic Escherichia Coli bacteria is attached to particles which could potentially encapsulate therapeutic drugs. The bacteria can attach to certain eukaryotic cells which are expressing mannose on their surface, resulting in bioadhesive microswimmers. [Image: see text]
