Data from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Provide New Insights into Robotics - Biomimetics

摘要

2011 JUN 6 - (VerticalNews.com) -- Scientists discuss in "Engineered biomimeticrnpolymers as tunable agents for controlling CaCO3 mineralization" new findings in Robotics -rnBiomimetics. "In nature, living organisms use peptides and proteins to precisely control the nucleation and growth of inorganic minerals and sequester CO(2)via mineralization of CaCOrn(3). Here we report the exploitation of a novel class of sequence-specific non-natural polymersrncalled peptoids as tunable agents that dramatically control CaCO(3) mineralization," scientistsrnin Berkeley, United States report.
