Cutting-Edge Mesoporous Materials for Biotechnological Applications in Separation Science

Cutting-Edge Mesoporous Materials for Biotechnological Applications in Separation Science

Nethravathi, Sneha Nayak, Arun M. Isloor

Mesoporous materials (MMs) have emerged as biocompatible and versatile material for biotechnological applications, particularly for protein separation and purification. This review provides a one stop overview of MMs, their types and their synthesis approaches. In addition, the existing challenges and limitations faced for large-scale production of MMs, such as the complexity of synthesis processes, the need for sophisticated characterization techniques, and the difficulties in achieving reproducible MMs with structural integrity at a large scale is emphasized. Additionally, the review stresses the future perspectives of using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) techniques in the design and optimization of MMs. These AI driven technologies can act as crucial tools for enhancing the performance of MMs by predicting their structural and mechanical properties based on characterization data using predictive modeling, potentially reducing the reliance on expensive, high-end equipment’s. Finally, the future prospects of MMs in biotechnological protein separation, purification and enzyme immobilization applications. Furthermore, the use of MMs as effective drug delivery carriers and innovative reusable adsorbents for adsorption of heavy metals and organic contaminants (dyes and antibiotics) are also emphasized. The ongoing advancements in AI and ML, coupled with innovative material design strategies by optimization strategies, are likely to expand the scalability and practical utility of MMs, making them indispensable tools in modern biotechnology.
