Note: In general, nanoreactors can be divided into two groups: natural and synthetic nanoreactors. The first group has a more selective function and at the same time a more complex structure, while the second group has more diversity and a simpler structure.

Natural Nanoreactors  Cells and cellular organelles, which are considered the most ideal nanoreactors, have lipid membranes.  These  nanoreactors are selective. This means that they are able to distinguish between different molecules and  allow only certain molecules to enter their internal cavity. In addition to selectivity, cells  are also sensitive by having pores in the membrane that open and close with external stimuli such as pH changes. Selectivity and sensitivity  are characteristics of all natural nanoreactors. And they are used in the production of nanosensors.


Nanostructured materials that are electrically conductive allow the production of inexpensive and portable biosensors and biodetectors  . These materials can be considered as warning signs and  therefore can be used in hazardous environments. The detection of  single molecules by photon detectors is another example of the application of nano-microelectronics in the life sciences. 

Conclusion: 

Natural nanoreactors  Cells and cellular organelles, which are considered the most ideal nanoreactors, have lipid membranes.  These  nanoreactors are selectable
