Figure 3. Motion behavior characterization of Motor-PFC.
(a) Comparison of the speed of bare motors and Motor-PFC at different US voltages (2, 4, and 6 V; 2.66 MHz) in water (n=3, mean ± s.d.). *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001; t-test. (b) Tracking trajectories of Motor-PFC at different voltages within a 1 s interval in water (Videos S1–S3). Scale bar, 10 μm. (c) Verification of the Motor-PFC integrity before (top) and after (bottom) 5 min US propulsion (6 V, 2.66 MHz). The AuNW motor was visualized under brightfield (BF); the RBC membrane was labeled with DiD (red) and the PFC was labeled with BODIPY (green) for fluorescent imaging. Scale bar, 20 μm.
