Inclusions induced phase separation in mixed lipid film
, 1999 The effect of rigid inclusions on the phase behavior of a film containing a mixture of lipid molecules is investigated. In the proposed model, the inclusion-induced deformation of the film, and the resulting energy cost are strongly dependent upon the ...

Confined Multilamellae Prefer Cylindrical Morphology [PDF]
, 2005 By evaporating a drop of lipid dispersion we generate the myelin morphology often seen in dissolving surfactant powders. We explain these puzzling nonequilibrium structures using a geometric argument: The bilayer repeat spacing increases and thus the ...

Elucidating mysteries of phase-segregated membranes: Mobile-lipid recruitment facilitates pores' passage to the fluid phase [PDF]
, 2018 Phase segregation of multicomponent lipid bilayers leads to, under phase-coexistence conditions, domain formation, featuring delimitation by essentially one-dimensional borders.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.[NiFe]‐hydrogenases efficiently catalyze hydrogen conversion, but their instability limits biotechnological applications. Here it is shown that encapsulating hydrogenase into hierarchical COFs with macro‐ and micropores and functionalized with sulfonic or carboxylic acid groups improves enzyme stability and electron transfer to electrodes.

General model of phospholipid bilayers in fluid phase within the single chain mean field theory
, 2014 Coarse-grained model for saturated (DCPC, DLPC, DMPC, DPPC, DSPC) and unsaturated (POPC, DOPC) phospholipids is introduced within the Single Chain Mean Field theory.

Effect of an electric field on a floating lipid bilayer: a neutron reflectivity study [PDF]
, 2006 We present here a neutron reflectivity study of the influence of an alternative electric field on a supported phospholipid double bilayer. We report for the first time a reproducible increase of the fluctuation amplitude leading to the complete unbinding
