A distributed amplifier system for bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) arrays with noise and individual offset cancellation [PDF]
Lipid bilayer membrane (BLM) arrays are required for high throughput analysis, for example drug screening or advanced DNA sequencing. Complex microfluidic devices are being developed but these are restricted in terms of array size and structure or have ...

Impedance analysis and single ion channel recordings on pore-suspending lipid bilayers based on highly ordered pore arrays [PDF]
Ion channels are one of the main drug targets and are in the focus of various membrane biosensor applications and drug screening assays. The aim of this thesis was to develop and characterize a novel membrane system suspending highly ordered porous ...

Electrons in bilayer graphene. [PDF]
Electrons in bilayer graphene possess an unusual property: they are chiral quasiparticles characterized by Berry phase 2pi. We review the tight-binding model of bilayer graphene which determines the band structure and low-energy quasiparticle properties ...

Interaction of the Antimicrobial Peptide Aurein 1.2 and Charged Lipid Bilayer
Aurein 1.2 is a potent antimicrobial peptide secreted by frog Litoria aurea. As a short membrane-active peptide with only 13 amino acids in sequence, it has been found to be residing on the surface of lipid bilayer and permeabilizing bacterial membranes ...

Neural Stem Cell Spreading on Lipid Based Artificial Cell Surfaces, Characterized by Combined X-ray and Neutron Reflectometry [PDF]
We developed a bioadhesive coating based on a synthetic peptide-conjugate (AK-cycloRGDfC]) which contains multiples of the arginyl-glycyl-aspartic acid (RGD) amino acid sequence.
