Key Points

To develop bioinspired antibacterial microrobots for effectively disrupting biofilms and killing bacteria.
Created cell-derived magnetic microrobots using polymer-assisted cell metallization.
Utilized mammalian cells to preserve original cell morphology in microrobots.
Microrobots successfully disrupted biofilms.
Demonstrated effective bacterial killing capabilities.

Implication

Microrobots demonstrate bacterial killing and biofilm disruption, suggesting a novel approach to tackle infections.

Abstract

This manuscript reports bioinspired antibacterial microrobots for biofilm disruption and bacterial killing. Cell-derived magnetic microrobots (MMCs) have been prepared via polymer-assisted cell metallization, precisely preserving the original cell morphology. When...
