Electroosmosis is the movement of liquid through a porous medium or gel in response to an electric field. This phenomenon occurs when the electric field induces a flow of charged particles, causing the surrounding liquid to move along with them. In nanofluidic systems, electroosmosis is particularly significant as it enables precise control over fluid flow at the nanoscale, influencing processes such as separation and manipulation of biomolecules.
congrats on reading the definition of Electroosmosis. now let's actually learn it.
