How are Biological Methods Applied in Nanotechnology?
Biological methods are applied in numerous ways within nanotechnology, including:
Biomimicry: Emulating natural processes and structures to develop new materials and devices. Self-assembly: Utilizing the inherent ability of biological molecules to spontaneously organize into functional structures. Biotemplating: Using biological structures as templates for fabricating nanomaterials with specific shapes and properties. Biosynthesis: Exploiting microorganisms, plants, or enzymes to produce nanoparticles in an environmentally friendly manner.
