Abstract
In this work, we consider a scheme of a direct synthesis of volumetric protein nanoparticles in a system previously consisted of amino acid molecules by using an asymptotic method of kinetics for forming objects having quantum features. A proposed model gives formally calculated sizes, which correspond to characteristic dimensions of protein nanoparticles (hemoglobin, elastin and lipoprotein). In addition, the model provides a mesoscopic range of sizes, which is in keeping with characteristic dimensions of non-dividing cells (erythrocytes and small lymphocytes) as well as of simplest organisms.
Keywords: Objects, quantum features, protein nanoparticles, cells, characteristic dimensions
