  • Achieved continuous modulation of signal characteristics, including frequencies up to 30 Hz.
  • Demonstrated fast switching between independently controlled stimuli.
  • Characterized beta2-adrenergic receptor (β2-AR) activation and internalization using epinephrine.

Main Results:

  • Successfully generated programmable chemical waveforms with controlled spatiotemporal characteristics.
  • Showcased rapid switching between distinct chemical stimuli.
  • Quantified the frequency-dependent activation and internalization of β2-AR.
  • Established a new method for studying dynamic cellular processes.

Conclusions:

  • The acoustofluidic approach offers unprecedented control over chemical microenvironments.
