- W1558915622 abstract "This chapter discusses the experimental realization and current applications of the lipid bilayer concept. The lipid bilayer comprises the fundamental structure of all biomembranes. The recognition of the lipid bilayer as a model for biomembranes dates back to the work of Gorter and Grendel published in 1925. However, the origin of the lipid bilayer concept is much older, and is traceable to black soap bubbles more than three centuries ago. The early observation of “black holes” in soap films had a profound influence on the development of the lipid bilayer concept of biomembranes and its subsequent experimental realization in planar lipid bilayers and spherical liposomes. The lipid bilayer principle of cell or biological membranes may be summarily stated that all living organisms are made of cells, and every cell is enclosed by a plasma membrane, the indispensable component of which is a lipid bilayer. The most pivotal function of the lipid bilayer membrane is that it separates the environment by a permeability barricade that allows the cell to preserve its identity, take up nutrients and to remove waste. This 5 nm thick liquid-crystallline lipid bilayer serves not just as a physical barrier but also as a conduit for transposrt, a reactor for energy conversion, a transducer for signal processing, a bipolar electrode for redox reactions or as a site for molecular recognition." @default.
