Characterization and application of a novel composite nanomaterial comprised of porous protein crystals and synthetic DNA
Altmetrics
Abstract
Composite nanomaterials are systems comprised of multiple components boasting enhanced properties over those exhibited by the individual constituents when isolated. Such systems are highly tunable, allowing one to vary component types (e.g., polymer, metal, ceramic) for influencing performance in various contexts. Moreover, composite nanomaterials can be further modified using biofunctionalization for use in biological settings. Composite nanomaterials have been tested in applications including, but not limited to, textile, defense, food, energy and biomedical engineering. A sub-domain within ...
