The Langmuir–Blodgett (LB) technique, through which monolayers are transferred from the
air/water interface onto a solid substrate, was the first method to allow for the controlled …

Cellular membranes are complex structures and simplified analogues in the form of model
membranes or biomembranes are used as platforms to understand fundamental properties …

Physico-chemical processes at air/liquid interfaces are of paramount importance in nature.
The Langmuir technique offers the possibility of forming a well-defined monolayer of …

Lipid monolayers provide our lungs and eyes their functionality and serve as proxy systems
in biomembrane research. Therefore, lipid monolayers have been studied intensively …

Brewster angle microscopy (BAM) is a powerful technique that allows for real-time
visualization of Langmuir monolayers. The lateral organization of these films can be …

Abstract Knowledge of the mesoscopic morphology of condensed phase domains formed
after the main phase transition in the two-phase coexistence region of Langmuir monolayers …

Langmuir monolayers at the air/water interface are widely used as biomembrane models
and for amphiphilic molecules studies in general. Under controlled intermolecular …

This review presents data on the influence of various experimental parameters on the
binding of proteins onto Langmuir lipid monolayers. The users of the Langmuir methodology …

Biomineralization is of paramount importance for life on Earth. The delicate balance of
physicochemical interactions at the interface between organic and inorganic matter during …

Membrane binding of proteins such as short chain dehydrogenase reductases or tail-
