  1. 1. Transport Modes in Nanotube-Vesicle Networks

    Author : Michal Tokarz; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; diffusion; confinement; liposome; biomimetic; micromanipulation; Vesicle; electrophoresis; network; nanotube; transport;

    Abstract : Methods for construction of surface-immobilized microscopic networks of phospholipid bilayer vesicles (3-50 µm in diameter) interconnected by lipid tubes (30-150 nm in radius), have previously been developed. The networks have controlled connectivity and are well-defined with regard to container size, content, angle between nanotube extensions, and nanotube length. READ MORE

  2. 2. Nanotube Vesicle Networks: Immobilization and Transport Studies

    Author : Johan Hurtig; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; network; electrophoresis; nanotechnology; liposome; biomimetic; confocal microscopy; Vesicle; microfabrication; nanotube;

    Abstract : Surfactant lipids are an essential element of living cells. They are the basis for the biomembranes that envelope and divide cells into compartments. In addition to this static function, lipid membranes also play a role in dynamic processes such as transport and signaling. READ MORE

  3. 3. Modification and Utilization of Nanotube-vesicle Networks

    Author : Martin Markström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nanotechnology; diffusion; network; nanotube; biomimetic; hydrogel; vesicle; compartmentalization; poly N-isopropyl acrylamide ; Marangoni; liposome;

    Abstract : Methods based on self-assembly and self-organization for construction of lipid bilayer networks, consisting of vesicles (3-100 μm in diameter) connected by conduits (50-300 nm in diameter), have previously been developed. Control over network geometry, topology, content, and membrane composition has been demonstrated. READ MORE

  4. 4. Vesicle - surfactant interactions : effect of non-ionic surfactants on structure and leakage of small unilamellar vesicles

    Author : Katarina Edwards; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP;

    Abstract : .... READ MORE

  5. 5. Vesicle transport in chloroplasts with emphasis on Rab proteins

    Author : Mohamed Alezzawi; Göteborgs universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; chloroplast; vesicle; transport; Arabidopsis; Rab; lipid; clathrin; protein; COPI; COPII;

    Abstract : Chloroplasts perform photosynthesis using PSI and PSII during its light-dependent phase. Inside the chloroplast there is a membrane called thylakoid. The thylakoid membranes are an internal system of interconnected membranes that carry out the light reactions of photosynthesis. READ MORE
