Identification and Characterization of a Freshwater Mussel Adhesive Protein comments

by Eli Sone Angelico Obille
Several adhesives found in nature perform in ways that synthetic adhesives do not yet match. For example, even though many aquatic organisms have adapted to adhere to surfaces in aqueous environments, it remains an engineering challenge to synthesize biocompatible adhesives that are effective in wet conditions...
