Anionic nanoparticle-lipid membrane interactions: the protonation of anionic ligands at the membrane surface reduces membrane disruption
Sebastian Salassi, Ester Canepa, Riccardo Ferrando +1
Monolayer-protected gold nanoparticles (Au NPs) are promising biomedical tools with applications to diagnosis and therapy, thanks to their biocompatibility and versatility. Here we…
A Martini coarse-grained model of the calcein fluorescent dye
Sebastian Salassi, Federica Simonelli, Alessio Bartocci +1
Calcein leakage assays are a standard experimental set-up for probing the extent of damage induced by external agents on synthetic lipid vesicles. The fluorescence signal associate…
Au Nanoparticles in Lipid Bilayers: a Comparison between Atomistic and Coarse Grained Models
Sebastian Salassi, Federica Simonelli, Davide Bochicchio +2
The computational study of the interaction between charged, ligand-protected metal nanoparticles and model lipid membranes has been recently addressed both at atomistic and coarse…
