ABSTRACT:
The movement of magnetically responsive nanoparticles through a membrane is significantly enhanced by using a varying magnetic field gradient. The magnetic field varies in intensity and/or direction and can be achieved by mechanically varying the position of a magnet with respect to the membrane, or by oscillating the strength of one or more electromagnets.
