What are the Applications of Self-Assembled Structures?
Self-assembled structures have a wide range of applications, including: - Drug Delivery: Liposomes and micelles can encapsulate drugs, protecting them from degradation and improving their delivery to target sites. - Electronics: Self-assembled nanostructures can be used to create more efficient and smaller electronic components. - Materials Science: Self-assembly can be used to create new materials with unique properties, such as superhydrophobic surfaces or materials with high mechanical strength. - Sensors: Self-assembled structures can enhance the sensitivity and specificity of sensors.
