研究目的
To summarize recent advances in functionalized micro/nanomachines, focusing on their propulsion, functionalization strategies, and applications in sensing and removal of toxic substances and microbes.
研究成果
Micro/nanomachines show great potential in sensing and removal applications due to their motion and functionalization, but challenges like propulsion strategies, fabrication complexity, and scalability need to be addressed for real-world use. Future efforts should focus on developing multifunctional, biocompatible, and collectively controllable micro/nanomachines.
研究不足
The review discusses challenges such as the toxicity of fuels used in propulsion, complexity of fabrication, and the need for biocompatible and fuel-free propulsion methods for practical applications in biological environments.
