Advances in Planar Lipid Bilayers and Liposomes
Edited by- Ales Iglic, Faculty of Electrical Engineering, University of Ljubljana, Ljubljana, Slovenia
Advances in Planar Lipid Bilayers and Liposomes volumes cover a broad range of topics, including main arrangements of the reconstituted system, namely planar lipid bilayers as well as spherical liposomes. The invited authors present the latest results of their own research groups in this exciting multidisciplinary field.
