Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study aimed to apply micrometer-sized oil droplets that move spontaneously in the surfactant aqueous solution to energy-saving transport carriers that deliver chemical substances to target locations without using a power source, such as an electric field and a magnetic field. It was found that oil droplets under a pH gradient and light-irradiated oil droplets moved in a specific direction in response to them. This is because the components of the surfactant and oil are changed by such stimulations. Therefore, the important knowledge was obtained for accurately controlling the direction of oil droplet movement.
