Micro/nanorobots (MNRs) are envisioned to provide revolutionary changes therapies for infectious diseases as they can deliver various antibacterial agents or energies many hard-to-reach infection sites. However, existing MNRs face substantial challenges in addressing complex infections that progress from superficial deep tissues. Here, we develop swarming magnetic Fe 3 O 4 @polydopamine-tannic acid nanorobots (Fe @PDA-TA NRs) capable of performing targeted bacteria elimination complicated bacterial by integrating photothermal and chemical strategies. The nanoparticles (NPs), serving building blocks the nanorobots, fabricated situ polymerization dopamine followed TA adhesion. When driven alternating fields, NPs assemble into large energetic microswarms continuously flowing forward with tunable velocity. Thus, NRs be navigated achieve rapid broad coverage a area distance rapidly eradicate residing there upon exposure near-infrared (NIR) light due their efficient conversion. Additionally, concentrate at sites traversing through confined, narrow, tortuous passages, exerting sustained action surface TA-induced easy cell adhesion subsequent membrane destruction. Therefore, show great potential superficial-to-deep infections. This study may inspire development future therapeutic microsystems multifunction synergies, task flexibility, high efficiency.

Micro/nanorobots (MNRs) hold great promise for various applications due to their capability execute complex tasks in hard-to-reach micro/nano cavities. However, the developed magnetic MNRs, as marionettes of external fields, lack built-in intelligence self-targeting, while chemotactic MNRs suffer from limited self-targeting range. Here, we demonstrate magnetic-chemotactic ZnO/Fe-Ag Janus microrobots (JMRs) capable rapid, remote bacterial elimination. The JMRs utilize Fe engine coarse navigation a distance, allowing control swiftly guide them vicinity hidden/uncharted target that establishes local chemical gradient ([CO
