The temperature-dependent ion conductance of OmpC, a major outer membrane channel of
Escherichia coli, is predicted using all-atom molecular dynamics simulations and …

Diphytanoylphosphatidyl choline (DPhPC) is a synthetic ester lipid with methylated tails
found in archaeal ether lipids. Because of the stability of DPhPC bilayers and the absence of …

Temperature dependent ion conductance in nanopores is measured in a wide range of
electrolyte concentrations and compared with molecular modeling. Single outer membrane …

Publisher Summary One-or two-dimensional thin-layer chromatography (TLC) is a useful
technique for the rapid characterization of the lipids present in halophilic archaeal isolates …

The branched chains in diphytanoyl lipids provide membranes with unique properties, such
as high chemical/physical stability, low water permeability, and no gel-to-fluid phase …

Di (3RS, 7R, 11R-phytanyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine and its glycerol epimers were
synthesized as model lipids of archaebacterial halophiles. These amphiphiles, upon …

Transwell experiments with Caco-2 or MDCK cells are the gold standard for determining the
intestinal permeability of chemicals. The intrinsic membrane permeability (P 0), that can be …

The pharmacodynamic profile of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and their in vivo synergy are
two factors that are thought to restrict resistance evolution and ensure their conservation …

Electroporation is a common tool for gene transfection, tumour ablation, sterilization and
drug delivery. Using experimental methods, we explore the temperature dependence of …

Doxorubicin is an anti-cancer drug that is important for breast cancer therapy. In this study,
the effects of the membrane potential of breast cancer cells (− 30 mV) and normal breast …
