Description

The lipid bilayer is central to life, as all living organisms possess a lipid bilayer structure, thereby underlying the lipid bilayer principle of biomembranes. The lipid bilayer principle and its applications are the main theme of this new book series.This new series on bilayer lipid membranes (BLMs and liposomes) include invited chapters on a broad range of topics, from theoretical investigations, specific studies, experimental methods, to practical applications. Written for newcomers, experienced scientists, and those who are not familiar with these specific research areas, the Series covers all aspects of lipid bilayer investigations, both fundamental and applied.

1. Lipid Microvesicles: On the Four Decades of Liposome Research. 2. Surface Properties of Liposomes Depending on their Composition. 3. Interaction of A1 and Related Metals with Membrane Phospholipids: Consequences on Membrane Physical Properties. 4. Interaction of Plant Polyphenols with Liposomes. 5. Cationic Lipids as Transmembrane Carriers for Nucleic Acids. 6. Molecular Interactions between Lipid and its Related Substances in Bilayer Membranes. 7. Cell-Mimicking Supramolecular Assemblies Based on Polydiacetylene Lipids: Recent Development as "Smart" Materials for Colorimetric and electrochemical Biosensing Devices. 8.

Description

Advances in Planar Lipid Bilayers and Liposomes, Volume 11, includes invited chapters on a broad range of topics, covering both of the main arrangements of the reconstituted system, namely planar lipid bilayers and spherical liposomes. The invited authors present the latest results of their own research groups in this exciting multidisciplinary field. This volume addresses the broader goal with both systems, planar lipid bilayers and spherical liposomes, which is the further development of this interdisciplinary field worldwide.
