    Artificial micro-cinderella based on self-propelled micromagnets for the active separation of paramagnetic particles
    (Cambridge : RSC, 2013) Zhao, G.; Wang, H.; Sanchez, S.; Schmidt, O.G.; Pumera, M.
    In this work, we will show that ferromagnetic microjets can pick-up paramagnetic beads while not showing any interaction with diamagnetic silica microparticles for the active separation of microparticles in solution.

    Rolled-up magnetic microdrillers: Towards remotely controlled minimally invasive surgery
    (Cambridge [u.a.] : Royal Society of Chemistry, 2013) Xi, W.; Solovev, A.A.; Ananth, A.N.; Gracias, D.H.; Sanchez, S.; Schmidt, O.G.
    Self-folded magnetic microtools with sharp ends are directed at enabling drilling and related incision operations of tissues, ex vivo, in a fluid with a viscosity similar to that of blood. These microtools change their rotation from a horizontal to a vertical one when they are immersed into a rotational magnetic field. Novel self-assembly paradigms with magnetic materials can enable the creation of remotely controlled and mass-produced tools for potential applications in minimally invasive surgery.
