Heterogeneous multi-compartmental hydrogel particles as synthetic cells for incompatible tandem reactions
Cells contain isolated compartments where cascade enzymatic biochemical reactions occur to form essential biological products with high efficiency. Here the authors produce functional hydrogel particles with multiple compartments via microfluidics that contain spatially immobilized natural enzymes i...
