Electrochemiluminescence Imaging of Liposome Permeabilization by an Antimicrobial Peptide: Melittin

open access: yesChemical & Biomedical Imaging, 2023
The permeabilization of liposomes by melittin, an antimicrobial peptide (AMP), has been studied by an electrochemiluminescence (ECL) imaging strategy. The methodology consisted first of encapsulating ECL reagents in sealed giant asymmetrical liposomes ...
