Dynamics of bilayer membranes 1. Isolated membrane [PDF]
Colloids and Surfaces A: Physicochemical and Engineering Aspects, 1996 By adopting the approximations suggested in the theory of thin shells, the hydrodynamic theory of liquid crystals established by Eriksen [Arch. Rational Mech. Anal. 4 (1960) 231; Trans. Soc. Rheol. 4 (1960) 29] and Leslie [Adv. Liq. Cryst. 4 (1979) 1] is modified so that it is applicable to study the lipid bilayer membranes.

The electrophoretic membrane contactor: A mass-transfer-based methodology applied to the separation of whey proteins [PDF]
, 2011 In the electrophoretic membrane contactor (EMC), a porous membrane is used to establish a contact across two flowing liquids between which an electrically driven mass transfer takes places.

Fusion of secretory vesicles isolated from rat liver [PDF]
, 1978 Secretory vesicles isolated from rat liver were found to fuse after exposure to Ca2+. Vescle fusion is characterized by the occurrence of twinned vesicles with a continuous cleavage plane between two vesicles in freeze-fracture electron microscopy.

Electro-membrane filtration for the selective isolation of bioactive peptides from an ?s2-casein hydrolysate [PDF]
, 2002 For the isolation of the ingredients required for functional foods and nutraceuticals generally membrane filtration has too low a selectivity and chromatography is (too) expensive.

Effects of freezing and protein cross-linker on isolating membrane raft–associated proteins
BioTechniques, 2010 Since the discovery of cellular membrane rafts, the defining of these domains has remained ambiguous due to a great number of isolation procedures proposed for the extraction of the rafts from cells.

Isolation and Characterization of Membrane Vesicles from Lactobacillus Species
Bio-Protocol, 2021 Throughout their life cycle, bacteria shed portions of their outermost membrane comprised of proteins, lipids, and a diversity of other biomolecules. These biological nanoparticles have been shown to have a range of highly diverse biological activities ...

The styrene-maleic acid copolymer:: a versatile tool in membrane research [PDF]
, 2016 A new and promising tool in membrane research is the detergent-free solubilization of membrane proteins by styrene-maleic acid copolymers (SMAs). These amphipathic molecules are able to solubilize lipid bilayers in the form of nanodiscs that are bounded ...

A novel marker glycoprotein for the microvillus membrane of surface colonocytes of rat large intestine and its presence in small-intestinal crypt cells [PDF]
, 1988 Murine mAbs were produced against purified microvillus membranes of rat colonocytes in order to establish a marker protein for this membrane. The majority of antibodies binding to the colonic microvillus membrane recognized a single protein with a mean ...
