<p>The present invention provides a microfluidic system comprising at least one microchannel (18) having an inner wall (17). The microfluidic system comprises attached to the inner wall (17) of the at least one microchannel (18) a plurality of ciliary actuator elements (l0a-d) and at least one floating current wire (14a-d) present in the at least one microchannel (18) for applying a magnetic field to the plurality of ciliary actuator elements (10a-d) for changing their shape and/or orientation. The present invention also provides a method for the manufacturing of such microfluidic systems and to a method for controlling a fluid flow through a microchannel (18) of such a microfluidic system.</p>
