We demonstrate that catalytic micromotors can be trapped in microfluidic chips containing chevron and heart-shaped structures. Despite the challenge presented by the reduced size of the traps, microfluidic chips with different trapping geometries can be fabricated via replica moulding. We prove that these microfluidic chips can capture micromotors without the need for any external mechanism to ...

A catalytic chiral gel microfluidic reactor assembled via dynamic covalent chemistry.

A novel dynamic covalent gel strategy is reported to immobilize an asymmetric catalyst within the channels of a microfluidic flow reactor. A layer of a catalytically active Mn-salen dynamic covalent imine gel matrix was coated onto a functionalized capillary. Mn-salen active moiety was incorporated into dynamic covalent imine gel matrix via the reaction of a chiral Mn-salen dialdehyde unit with...
