All‐Amyloid Functional Coacervates (Adv. Mater. 61/2026)
All-Amyloid Functional Coacervates Interfacial complex coacervation enables artificial bioscaffolds that mimic life chemistry. In their Research Article (DOI: 10.1002/adma.74737), Seyyed Alireza Hashemi, Mohammad Peydayesh, Laura Baraldi, Mohammad Arjmand, and Raffaele Mezzenga harness oppositely charged food-derived amyloid nanofibrils to induce liquid-liquid phase separation, creating structurally tunable proteinaceous vein-like tubules, capsules, and films with functionalities spanning bioscaffolds, iontronic/electronic circuits, soft electromagnetic shielding, bio-optics, and beyond.
