内部产生表面活性剂的反胶束被认为是简单(或“最小”)自创生系统的实验可行模型。我们描述了它们可能形成的条件及其可能的生物学意义。这里考虑的胶束系统也表现出通过在合理条件下分裂而进行自我繁殖的能力,从而也构成了生命起源前自我繁殖的最小实验模型。
Reverse micelles hosting the internal production of the surfactant are poposed as experimnetally feasible models of simple (or ''minimal'') autopoietic systems. We describe the conditions under which they may be formed and their possible biological implications. The micellar systems considered here turn out also to exhibit a capacity for self-reproduction through fragmentation under plausible conditions, thus constituting also a minimal experimental model for prebiotic self-reproduction.
