Research article (journal)Abstract
To catch a bug: Self-assembly of bacteria has been achieved by combining Escherichia coli and synthetic zeolite L. The assembly can be controlled so that the structure possesses either a 1:1 or 2:1 ratio (see schematic representation) between the bacteria and porous nanocontainers.
