Characterization of Biological Membranes by Equivalent Pores
The description of the permeability properties of biological membranes in terms of parallel pathways for lipid-insoluble and lipid=soluble molecules has its roots in the studies of Overton (1) and Collander and Barlund (2) and has been presented in detail in several books, such as those of Davson and Danielli (3) and H6ber (4). The concept of the equivalent pore as a description of the path tak...
متن کاملBiological membranes
Biological membranes allow life as we know it to exist. They form cells and enable separation between the inside and outside of an organism, controlling by means of their selective permeability which substances enter and leave. By allowing gradients of ions to be created across them, membranes also enable living organisms to generate energy. In addition, they control the flow of messages betwee...
متن کاملFrom biological membranes to biomimetic model membranes
Biological membranes play an essential role in the cellular protection as well as in the control and the transport of nutrients. Many mechanisms such as molecular recognition, enzymatic catalysis, cellular adhesion and membrane fusion take place into the biological membranes. In 1972, Singer et al. provided a membrane model, called fluid mosaic model, in which each leaflet of the bilayer is for...
متن کاملMembranes: Shaping biological matter.
173 news & views t he space occupied by living organisms is determined by membranes. Each cell is delimited by a membrane, and additional membranes form the functional hierarchy of compartments packed within it. The intracellular compartments, for example vesicles and organelles, define the spatial organization of metabolic pathways, thus providing the topological framework for cellular life. R...
متن کاملElectroporation of Biological Membranes
In recent years, manipulation of biological cells and cell tissue by external electric fields gains increasing importance for biophysics and cell biology in general and in biotechnology and medicine in particular. Especially, the method of electroporation has become a powerfool tool for cell manipulations. In electroporation cells are subjected to a pulsed high-voltage electric field, resulting...
