The response of polypyrrole–DBS electrochemical molecular motors to Na concentration: Analogies in cell biology

Conducting polymers employed as film electrodes in aqueous electrolytes can be viewed as a combination of electrochemical molecular motors, counterions and water: the material mimics the intracellular matrix of a muscle cell. The oxidation of a molecular motor promotes opposing macroscopic variation...
