Chiral effects lead to biased locomotion and orientational distribution changes with increasing Péclet number.
The diffusion coefficient perpendicular to the shear plane significantly reduces due to chirality.
Numerical calculations of average swimming velocity and diffusion tensor illustrate the impact of shear-induced torque effects.
Results may enable advancements in flow-mediated cell separation, suggesting practical applications in biological fluid dynamics.
