Biology concepts, nanoscale science

Nanoreactors are nanoscale containers with the ability of selective encapsulation of guest(s). The confined microenvironment within a NR can remarkably influence the process inside. There are various kinds of NRs, including biological, self-assembled, and natural or synthetic NRs, Up to now, numerous reports have been published on the synthesis and applications of NRs, It is expected that this research field will develop even more rapidly and offer solutions to many challenging topics in material science, catalysis, biomedicine, sensors, etc. It is hoped that the concepts presented in this opening chapter provide information to fundamental concepts of NRs and their potential applications. In the following chapters, various kinds of organic NRs, as well as their potential applications, will be discussed in detail,...
