Single-atom-anchored microsweepers for H. pylori inhibition through dynamically navigated reciprocating locomotion

Catalytic microsweepers with a single-iron-atom center were designed to search for and inhibit Helicobacter pylori. Under dynamic navigation, the microsweepers displayed a large-range wall-adhering reciprocating motion, which increased the opportunity for interaction between microsweepers and H. pylori and further inhibited H. pylori through acid-responsive reactive oxygen species generation.
