我们说明了使用催化纳米线马达的定向运动和微流体通道网络的货物的微尺度运输。基于碳纳米管的合成纳米管可以高速推动大量货物通过微通道网络的预定路径和连接点。含镍纳米发动机的磁性提供了受控的货物操纵，包括途中装载、拖曳和释放。合成纳米机器的这种使用可以导致化学动力的通用芯片实验室设备同时或顺序地执行一系列任务。
We illustrate the used of catalytic nanowire motors for directional motion and microscale transport of cargo with microfluidic channel networks. The CNT-based synthetic nanomotor cna propel a large cargo load at high speeds through predetermined paths and junctions of the microchannel network. The magnetic properties of the nickel-containing nanomotors offer controlled cargo manipulations, including en-route load, drag, and release. Such use of synthetic nanomechines cand lead to chemically powered versaltile laboratory-on-a-chip devices performing a series of tasks simulltaneously or sequentially.
