Supported Membrane Formation, Characterization, Functionalization, and Patterning for Application in Biological Science and Technology

Supported membranes, formed as a single continuous lipid bilayer on a solid substrate, such as silica, have been used extensively as a model for protein?protein and cell?cell interaction, to study the molecular interactions at interfaces
