The model of the dipole-quadrupole

A newly installed robot will provide researchers much higher quality preparation of biological samples, improving drastically reproducibility of experiments.

Here Red particles represent Active agents and green represent  Passive  agents. The variation in density of the mixture and the strength of the self-motile agents creates vortexes in the fluid space.
