Beschreibungen/Notizen

• The Front Cover shows the repetition of catch and release chemotaxis, which was studied by using a self‐propelled 6‐methylcoumarin (6‐MC) disk floating on water. A tablet of Na3PO4 placed at the bottom of the water phase acted as the chemical stimulus by inducing a variation in surface tension. The self‐propelled object, the 6‐MC disk, moves in the direction of the chemical stimulus (top left) and it is caught by the stimulus (top right), that is, by the chemical reaction between 6‐MC and OH−. When OH− is consumed, the 6‐MC disk is released from the tablet and moves towards the higher surface tension (bottom).
