👉 Microminiaturization is a process in which microorganisms are reduced to smaller sizes, typically through chemical processes such as ultracentrifugation or lyophilization. This can be achieved by reducing the size of the organism from a large, complex structure to a very small one, often down to the nanoscale. The goal is to isolate and study these structures for their properties, which can then be used in various fields such as medicine, biology, and materials science.
