Bioadhesives are natural polymeric materials that many organisms, such as mussels, use for their adhesive properties. Bioadhesives have been seen as an excellent alternative to human-made substances as they are stronger and more durable in conjunction with being eco-friendly. In addition, they exhibit properties that allow them to be used in underwater and medical applications which is the main interest of this project.
New Natural Part: Why are you using this part? How did you find this part? What database/ resources did you use? What primers will you use to isolate it and turn it into a BioBrick?
Key Pre-existing Part: If you didn't need to use a new natural part, describe one important pre-existing BioBrick from the parts registry.org that you will use. Why are you using it? Describe how well-documented the part is. Do you trust it?
