Biomimetic membranes

Biomimetic membranes are artificially created structures designed to replicate the functions of natural biological membranes, such as cell membranes. They are made from materials that mimic the properties of lipids and proteins found in living organisms, allowing selective transport of substances like water, ions, or molecules. These membranes are used in technologies like water purification, desalination, and medical devices, offering efficient and sustainable solutions by copying nature’s optimized systems for separating and controlling substances at the molecular level.
