Supported Bilayer Lipid Membrane: A Review
Journal Title: Journal of Chemistry and Applied Biochemistry - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
Supported membranes represent an elegant route to designing well-defined fluid interfaces which mimic many physical-chemical properties of biological membranes. Growths in the applications of physical approaches in understanding and controlling lipid membranes have witnessed a rapid growth in recent years. The present reviews highlight some of the key challenges of cellular membranes and exemplify their utility in fundamental biophysical studies and technological applications.
