What are the Challenges in Protein Nanotechnology?
Despite the potential of protein nanotechnology, several challenges need to be addressed. These include:
Stability: Proteins can be sensitive to environmental conditions such as temperature and pH, which can affect their stability and functionality. Scalability: Producing protein-based nanomaterials in large quantities can be challenging and costly. Complexity: The complex nature of proteins makes it difficult to fully understand and predict their behavior in nanoscale systems.
