Thermodynamic Relaxation Drives Expulsion in Giant Unilamellar Vesicles
C. T. Leirer, B. Wunderlich, A. Wixforth +1
We investigated the thermodynamic relaxation of giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) which contained small vesicles within their interior. Quenching these vesicles from their fluid ph…
Simultaneously Propagating Voltage and Pressure Pulses in Lipid Monolayers of pork brain and synthetic lipids
J. Griesbauer, S. Boessinger, A. Wixforth +1
Hydrated interfaces are ubiquitous in biology and appear on all length scales from ions, individual molecules to membranes and cellular networks. In vivo, they comprise a high degr…
Wave Propagation in Lipid Monolayers
J. Griesbauer, A. Wixforth, M. F. Schneider
Sound waves are excited on lipid monolayers using a set of planar electrodes aligned in parallel with the excitable medium. By measuring the frequency dependent change in the later…
Thermo-mechanic-electrical coupling in phospholipid monolayers near the critical point
D. Steppich, J. Griesbauer, T. Frommelt +3
Lipid monolayers have been shown to represent a powerful tool in studying mechanical and thermodynamic properties of lipid membranes as well as their interaction with proteins. Usi…
Flow profiling of a surface acoustic wave nanopump
Z. Guttenberg, A. Rathgeber, S. Keller +5
The flow profile in a capillary gap and the pumping efficiency of an acoustic micropump employing Surface Acoustic Waves is investigated both experimentally and theoretically. Such…
