The bacterial membrane interaction of the antimicrobial peptide microcin J25 was studied with the probe-free techniques Langmuir monolayers and infrared spectroscopy. Membrane model systems composed by phosphatidylethano ...

Although membrane proteins constitute an important class of biomolecules involved in key cellular processes, study of the thermodynamic and kinetic stability of their structures is far behind that of soluble proteins. It ...

The colloidal route of the sol-gel process was used to prepare supported SnO2 membranes. The influence of the sol and monoelectrolyte concentrations on the formation of the gel layer by sol-casting on the top of macroporous ...

A ZSM-5 membrane synthesized on a stainless steel porous tube was used for the separation of p-xylene from its isomers, m- and o-xylene. The membrane was prepared by secondary growth on the outer surface of the support. ...

A chitosan magnetic membrane was prepared in order to confer magnetic properties to the membrane, which could be used for the removal of cations from aqueous solution. The crosslinked magnetic membrane was compared with ...

The study of artificial membranes composed by phospholipid bilayer on solid substrates has become a relevant way to gain insights into the physical behavior of cell membranes. In this work, using very high resolution ellipsometry ...
