摘要: Diatoms have an ability that is unique among the unicellular photoautotrophic organisms to synthesize intricately ornamented siliceous (biosilica) exoskeleton with ordered, hierarchical, three-dimensional structure on a micro- nanoscale. The morphological, structural, mechanical, transport, photonic, and optoelectronic properties of diatomaceous biosilica make it desirable material for modern technologies. This review presents summary discussion published research metabolic insertion chemical elements specific functional activity into biosilica. Included in innovation methods synthesis new generation materials, where process “outsourced” intelligent microorganisms, referred here as microtechnologists, by providing them appropriate conditions reagents.
