AbstractThin lipid membranes formed across an aperture in a teflon foil are frequently used as model systems to simulate the hydrophobic diffusion barrier of biological membranes. These membranes have a thickness of about twice the length of a lipid molecule (bilayer membranes) and are prepared either by a spontaneous transition of a thick lamella made

Structure of Oriented Lipid Bilayers
Nature New Biology, 1971X-ray diffraction studies show that lipid hydrocarbon chains are uniformly packed in bilayers and oriented so that their free ends are near the centre. This provides a model for biological membranes.

Flexoelectricity of lipid bilayers
Liquid Crystals, 1990Abstract The direct flexoeffect in single lipid bilayers in the form of black lipid membranes has been investigated experimentally by the oscillating pressure technique in the regime of voltage measurement. Black lipid membranes of various composition have been studied in order to check the effect of lipid surface charge on the curvature-electric ...

Proton permeation of lipid bilayers
Journal of Bioenergetics and Biomembranes, 1987Proton permeation of the lipid bilayer barrier has two unique features. First, permeability coefficients measured at neutral pH ranges are six to seven orders of magnitude greater than expected from knowledge of other monovalent cations. Second, proton conductance across planar lipid bilayers varies at most by a factor of 10 when pH is varied from near

The permeability of a lipid bilayer
2006This work presents results on the permeability of a lipid bilayer to water molecules. We look at the change in bilayer permeability as a function of lipid structure and area per lipid molecule. A molecular dynamic simulation (MDS) of a solvent surfactant system was used in the canonical ensemble to simulate the membranes.
