Microbial cells offer untapped nanotech potential
Abstract:
Nanotechnology, and its applicability to pharma, is an area of interest to researchers. However, Antonio Villaverde, from Universitat Auṭnoma de Barcelona, Spain, writes in the journal Microbial Cell Factories that research into one area of nanomaterial production needs to increase.
Villaverde, who is also editor-in-chief of the journal, says the potential of microbial cells in the production of nanomaterials has been underestimated. He expects the true potential to emerge in coming years and has called on researchers to submit more papers in this area to the journal.
