| description | Highlights This review provides a detailed account of engineered plant cell wall (CW)-mimetic soft materials, which are designed to replicate the intricate composition, structure, and mechanical properties of natural plant CWs. Experimental methods to create CW-like materials are reviewed, and relevant characterization techniques, including mechanical, chemical, structural, and morphological analyses, are discussed. The applications of CW-like materials in several fields, including food packaging, edible films, drug delivery, construction materials, and biocatalysis are highlighted. |
