Nano-functionalized filamentous fungus hyphae with fast reversible macroscopic assembly & disassembly features†‡
Abstract
A uniform decoration of hyphae by polyaniline nanoparticles (PANI NPs) was achieved here. This novel hybrid structure can be effectively assembled into a film by filtration and disassembled in water by shaking. This reversible process is very fast, which promises applications in nanomaterials including adsorption.
