What are the Applications of Gradient Based Movement?
Gradient based movement has numerous applications in biomedicine, materials science, and environmental monitoring. Some notable applications include:
Targeted Drug Delivery: Nanoparticles can be engineered to follow chemical gradients to deliver drugs to specific cells or tissues. Tissue Engineering: Gradients can guide the growth and differentiation of cells on scaffolds to create complex tissues. Environmental Monitoring: Nanosensors can move along pollutant gradients to detect and quantify contaminants in the environment.
