Microactuation systems are currently enabled only using large
external appratus. This essentially defeats the original purpose of
miniaturization. We employ flagellated bacteria as reconfigurable
actuators in low Reynolds number fluidic environments. The bacteria
are self-contained and are able to draw energy directly from the
surrounding environment. Furthermore, flagellated bacteria can be
utilized as both individual microactuators and in arrays to create
useful works in a variety of microfluidic environments, and
controlled in a directed manner using many different kinds of
external stimuli, such as temperature, food, and a specific
wavelength of lights. The book is addressed to professionals in
Science and Technology like fluid mechanicians, microbiologists and
nanoengineers. It is also directed towards researchers in
Microfluidics, Micro/Nanofabrication and Biophyics.
