Artificial bacterial flagella functionalized with temperature-sensitive liposomes for controlled release

•Arrays of artificial bacterial flagella (ABFs) 16μm in length were fabricated.•A functionalization process to generate functionalized ABFs (f-ABFs) was developed.•Hydrophobic and hydrophilic drug models carried by the f-ABFs were demonstrated.•Temperature-triggered release of calcein (a drug model)...
