Engineering droplet-based cell-mimics

open access: yes, 2021
For many cellular activities including escaping from toxins or acquiring nutrition, mobility is of significant importance. To mimic and study cellular motion, many strategies have been proposed. However, most reported motile systems cannot be applied to biological environments as either the moving objects or the environment media is not biocompatible ...

Droplet-based microfluidics and enzyme evolution

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Biotechnology
Enzymes are widely used as catalysts in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries. While successful in many situations, they must usually be adapted to operate efficiently under nonnatural conditions. Enzyme engineering allows the creation of novel enzymes that are stable at elevated temperatures or have higher activities and selectivities.
