Description
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 or metal-lipid bilayer interfaces. The second
aim is to treat planar lipid bilayers as a new type of interfacial adsorption phenomena.
The first nine chapters cover properties
of biomembranes, basic principles of membrane biophysics, transport, electrochemistry, physiology, bioenergetics, and photobiology. Chapter
10 presents the following topics: lipid bilayers in medicine, supported lipid bilayers as sensors, a short discussion of liposomes, and
solar energy transduction via semiconductor septum photovoltaic cells based on natural photosynthesis.
Audience
For undergraduate and graduate students interested in membrane biophysics, students majoring in any fields of biological and physical sciences.
