摘要
Artificial cells now ranges from macro-dimensions, to micron-dimensions, to nano-dimensions, and to molecular dimensions. Those in the macro-dimensions are suitable for use in the bioencapsulation of cells, tissues, microorganisms, and bioreactants. Those in the micron-dimensions are suitable for the bioencapsulation of enzymes, microorganisms, peptides, drugs, vaccine, and other materials. Those in the nano-dimension are being used for blood substitutes and carriers for enzymes, peptides, drugs, etc. Those in the molecular-dimensions are used as blood substitutes, crosslinked enzymes etc.
