Description
Summary:Moreno and Rosales-Hoz discusses the crystal growth of inorganic, organic, and biological macromolecules in gels. The authors explores on the historical data related to gel method in which the pioneering experiment on crystal growth in gels was performed in 1896 by Liesegang who obtained periodic precipitation of inorganic compounds grown in gelatine. They added the innovative development of gel growth techniques used to grow different types of crystals in modern days. Also mentions the synthesis and structure type of gels used to grow crystals.
