Advances in Planar Lipid Bilayers and Liposomes, Volume 4

by Liposomes

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 [...]

MEMBRANE BIOPHYSICS: AS VIEWED FROM EXPERIMENTAL BILAYER

by Liposomes

This book summarizes the current status of research on bilayer lipid membranes (planar lipid bilayers and spherical liposomes). In addition to describing the properties of lipid bilayers and examining biomembrane phenomena, the book has two other objectives. The first is to present practical methods for the formation and study of lipid bilayers with either aqueous [...]

Lipids & Membranes

by Liposomes

This course is part of a series taught by Kevin Ahern at Oregon State University on General Biochemistry. For more information about online courses go to ecampus.oregonstate.edu 1. Membranes are composed of a lipid bilayer and other molecules, such as cholesterol. The lipid bilayer contains two main categories of molecules - glycerophospholipids and sphingolipids. 2. [...]

Lipid Bilayers: Structure and Interactions (Biological And

by Liposomes

A general review of lipid bilayer structure and dynamics is given, including such current topics as the hydration of lipid bilayers, the superstructural behaviour of bilayers at different states of hydration and external conditions, the role and behaviour of lipid bilayers on fusion and rupture and the interaction of lipid bilayers with small organic molecules [...]

Life - as a Matter of Fat

by Liposomes

To most people, fats are something viscious that are dangerous to our health and well-being and therefore should be avoided. Some people know that fats are essential ingredients of the diet and futhermore provide for tasty meals. Others acknowledge that certain fats like cholesterol are required for the body`s production of important hormones, such as [...]

Planar Lipid Bilayers (BLM's) and Their Applications (Membrane

by Liposomes

The lipid bilayer is the most basic structural element of cell membranes. A wide range of topics are covered in this volume, from the origin of the lipid bilayer concept, to current applications and experimental techniques. Each chapter in this volume is self-contained and describes a group's research, providing detailed methodology and key references useful [...]

The Structure of Biological Membranes, Third Edition

by Liposomes

Biological membranes provide the fundamental structure of cells and viruses. Because much of what happens in a cell or in a virus occurs on, in, or across biological membranes, the study of membranes has rapidly permeated the fields of biology, pharmaceutical chemistry, and materials science. The Structure of Biological Membranes, Third Edition provides readers with [...]
