In vitro magnetic actuation of the Cellbots in a microfluidic channel. a) Fabricated microfluidic channel with loading chamber, micro-pillars, and tortuous route. b) Rolling motion of the Cellbots under a rotating magnetic field (scale bar = 50 μm). c) Magnetic pulling motion of the Cellbots under a magnetic field gradient (scale bar = 50 μm). d) Co-cultivation of the Cellbots with 2D attached hNTSCs in the microfluidic channel (scale bar =500 μm). DIV, days in vitro.
