About

Aditya Sapre is pioneering the emerging field of enzymatic microfluidics, where biology meets fluid dynamics at the nanoscale. His research centers on harnessing the catalytic power of enzymes to create self-propelling, biocompatible systems that can autonomously transport particles without external power sources. In his most cited work, Sapre demonstrates how nanoscale enzymes anchored to surfaces act as chemical pumps, converting the chemical energy released from enzymatic reactions into spontaneous fluid flow. This breakthrough enables the propulsion of entrained nano- and microparticles across macroscale sheets, opening new possibilities for lab-on-a-chip devices, targeted drug delivery, and biosensing. By leveraging the unique substrate specificity and selectivity of enzymes, his approach offers a greener, more precise alternative to traditional mechanical or electrical pumping methods. With over 16 citations across his key publications, Sapre’s contributions are gaining recognition for their potential to revolutionize microfluidic systems. His work stands at the intersection of nanotechnology, biochemistry, and materials science, promising a future where chemical reactions themselves drive the movement of matter.
