Novel platform biotechnology for the production of natural next generation 3D nanomaterials and nanodevices

将化学基团和功能肽排列在工程化的、安全的(非传染性)类病毒纳米颗粒(VNPs)的表面，可以形成仿生的多功能和高活性的纳米结构。该项目致力于开发下一代功能3D纳米材料，通过将这种多功能VNPs加入到具有优异机械特性的低成本纳米纤维素基质中，从而能够生产创新的功能和催化纳米反应器、涂层、过滤器和其他设备

Arraying of chemical groups and functional peptides on the surface of engineered, safe (non-infectious) virus-like nanoparticles (VNPs), permits the formation of biomimetic multifunctional and highly reactive nanoscale structures. This project seeks to develop the next generation functional 3D nanomaterials we via the incorporation of such multifunctional VNPs into a low cost nanocellulose matrix which has excellent mechanical characteristics, thus allowing production of innovative functional and catalytic nanoreactors, coatings, filters and other devices
