A spherical-like mesoporous cerium oxide (CeO2-BT) was prepared through biotemplating method using egg-shell membrane (ESM) as a template. The CeO2-BT has shown a smaller nanoparticle size (30–34 nm) and larger surface area (26.52 m2/g) compared to CeO2 prepared through thermal decomposition method...
