Osmotic Pressure of E.coli in Suspension

POSTER

Abstract

The non-equilibrium statistical mechanics of active particles have raised considerable interest over the recent years. Here, we investigate the thermodynamic properties (i.e. osmotic pressure and effective temperature) by dielectrophoresis (DEP) and the single particle behaviors by tracking E. coli's movements (i.e. mean-square-displacement and diffusivity) in order to characterize the motion activities of E. coli.
