The mutual dependence of nanostructures in solutions and the activity of enzymes

Abstract

Enzymic reactions can advantageously be used to modify the nanostructure of a given system under defined conditions and in a mild manner. Some examples taken from the literature are shown to illustrate this approach. Alternatively enzymic reactions may depend strongly on the nanostructuring of the system. As will be shown such dependence can have interesting consequences for future applications esp. as far as direct micellar solns. are concerned.
