Derleme Makalesi POLYELECTROLYTES AND IST BIOLOGICAL PROPERTIES
The interaction of polymers having the characteristics of synthetic or natural, biocompatible and biodegradable polyelectrolytes with biomolecules exhibits the presence of biologically important mechanisms and has a great importance for biomedical uses. Researches about artificial immunization systems are still continuing thanks to the adjuvant effect which stimulates the immunity and which is ...
متن کاملBiological and biomimetic molecular machines.
The evolution of life facilitates the creation of biological molecular machines. In these so-called 'nanomachines,' nature elegantly shows that when precisely organized and assembled, simple molecular mechanical components can link motions efficiently from the nanometer scale to the macroscopic world, and achieve complex functions such as powering skeletal muscles, synthesizing ATP and producin...
متن کاملBiological and biomimetic materials and surfaces
From everyday life experience, we all know that during watering or rainfall, water rolls off the leaves of many plants in the form of spherical droplets leaving the leaves themselves entirely dry. This effect can be seen in an especially impressive manner on the leaves of the sacred lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) and Tropaeolum (Tropaeolum majus). Interestingly, with the rolling off of water droplets...
متن کاملBiomimetic Strategies for Sensing Biological Species
The starting point of modern biosensing was the application of actual biological species for recognition. Increasing understanding of the principles underlying such recognition (and biofunctionality in general), however, has triggered a dynamic field in chemistry and materials sciences that aims at joining the best of two worlds by combining concepts derived from nature with the processability ...
متن کاملFrom biological membranes to biomimetic model membranes
Biological membranes play an essential role in the cellular protection as well as in the control and the transport of nutrients. Many mechanisms such as molecular recognition, enzymatic catalysis, cellular adhesion and membrane fusion take place into the biological membranes. In 1972, Singer et al. provided a membrane model, called fluid mosaic model, in which each leaflet of the bilayer is for...
