Dual polarization interferometry (DPI) and quartz-crystal microgravimetry (QCM-D) were
used to investigate the adsorption of DOPC vesicles to a solid hydrophilic surface. The layer …

Neutron reflectometry was used to probe in situ the structure of supported lipid bilayers at
the solid− liquid interface during the early stages of UV-induced oxidative degradation …

In the context of nanomedicine, liposils (lipo somes and sil ica) have a strong potential for
drug storage and release schemes: such materials combine the intrinsic properties of …

A hydrated, surface-tethered polymer network capable of fivefold change in thickness over a
25–37° C temperature range has been demonstrated via neutron reflectivity and …

Supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) have been studied extensively as simple but powerful
models for cellular membranes. Yet, potential differences in the dynamics of the two leaflets …
