Here, a method of doing so by means of the magnetic gradient force generated at magnetic-nanoparticle-modified electrodes is presented. It is shown using Fe3O4-nanoparticle-modified electrodes that the ultrahigh magnetic gradients （〉10^8 T·m^- 1） established at the magnetized Fe3O4 nanoparticles speed up the transport of reactants and products at the electrode surface. Using the Fe（Ⅲ）/ Fe（Ⅱ）-hexacyanoferrate redox couple, it is demonstrated that this mass transport enhancement can conveniently and repeatedly be switched on and off by applying and removing an external magnetic properties of magnetite nanoparticles field, owing to the superparamagnetic Thus, it is shown for the first time that magnetic nanoparticles can be used to control mass transport in electrochemical systems. Importantly, this approach does not require any means of mechanical agitation and is therefore particularly interesting for application in micro- and nanofluidic systems and devices.展开更多
