Swelling of Single Supported Bilayers ¿ First Systematic Investigation of the...
This proposal addresses bilayer swelling experiements on floating supported bilayers (FSBs) in the presence of biological buffers. Previous work on multilamellar vesicles has... -
Bilayer modification and charge screening by simple ions
Calcium ions have been shown in a preliminary experiment to have a dramatic effect on the thickness and structure of free supported DPPC bilayer films. At low concentrations... -
Interaction between RNA and lipid monolayers
The objective of the suggested study is to reveal the structure formed when short ssRNA molecules (similar to miRNA) interact with lipid monolayers at the air-water interface....
