Lipid domain coarsening and fluidity in multicomponent lipid vesicles: A continuum based model and its experimental validation
Y. Wang, Y. Palzhanov, A. Quaini +2
Liposomes that achieve a heterogeneous and spatially organized surface through phase separation have been recognized to be a promising platform for delivery purposes. However, thei…

Experimental validation of a phase-field model to predict coarsening dynamics of lipid domains in multicomponent membranes
Alexander Zhiliakov, Yifei Wang, Annalisa Quaini +2
Membrane phase-separation is a mechanism that biological membranes often use to locally concentrate specific lipid species in order to organize diverse membrane processes. Phase se…

A computational study of lateral phase separation in biological membranes
Vladimir Yushutin, Annalisa Quaini, Sheereen Majd +1
Conservative and non-conservative phase-field models are considered for the numerical simulation of lateral phase separation and coarsening in biological membranes. An unfitted fin…
