Science - Biology (-tech,-chem,micro-) / nanobioreattori
English term or phrase: on/off switchable
Si tratta di un progetto UE che ha messo a punto dei bioreattori in nanoscala che possono essere controllati modificando la temperatura esterna.

The initiative developed a new generation of stimuli-responsive smart devices capable of self-switching towards advanced applications. These applications included ***on/off switchable*** biocatalysis in the fields of biology, food, health and environment. Scientists developed a new type of bioreactor capapable of self control for advanced applications.

At relatively low temperatures the active donor–receptor interaction — resulting from ionic hydrogen bonding — coalesces, thereby restricting access to the bioreactor for biosubstrates. In contrast, at relatively high temperatures the hydrogen bonding is weakened and the biosubstrate becomes freely available to the bioreactor. Therefore, the external temperature acts as an ***on/off switchable*** model.

Pensavo di mettere "che può essere attivato/disattivato" ... ma probabilmente avete qualche proposta migliore :-)
