仿生微胶囊的组装及其应用
摘要
The assembly of multifunctional biomimetic microcapsules at the molecular level is of tremendous interest for biophysical research. Among the available molecular assembly techniques, layer-by-layer assembly has attracted extensive attention for the fabrication of biomimetic microcapsules because it possesses engineered features including size, shape, thickness, composition and permeation, and the capability of incorporating different types of biomolecules. In this tutorial review, we highlight how biomimetic microcapsules can be fabricated by directly applying lipids and proteins as assembly pairs and how layer-by-layer assembled polyelectrolyte microcapsules can be modified with biological components such as lipid membranes and proteins. The applications of the assembled biomimetic microcapsules in biological system is also summarized.
