Ordered amphiphile self-assembly materials with a tunable three-dimensional (3D)
nanostructure are of fundamental interest, and crucial for progressing several biological and …

ABSTRACT Introduction Lyotropic liquid crystals (LLCs) are organized mesophases with
intermediate properties between liquids and solids. The LLC and its liquid crystalline …

Soft nanoconfinement can increase chemical reactivity in nature and has therefore led to
considerable interest in transferring this universal feature to artificial biological systems …

Enzyme-based electrochemical biosensors play an important role in point-of-care
diagnostics for personalized medicine. For such devices, lipid cubic phases (LCP) represent …

Soft mesoporous hierarchically structured particles were created by the self-assembly of an
amphiphilic deep cavitand cyclodextrin βCD-nC10 (degree of substitution n= 7.3), with a …

Hypothesis: Lyotropic liquid crystals (LLC) and their phase transformations in response to
stimuli have gathered much interest for controlled and 'on-demand'drug applications. Bulk …

The unique molecular architecture of lipidic cubic phases (LCPs) and their cubosome
dispersions comprise a well-defined, curved bilayer that spans the entire three-dimensional …

Encapsulation of proteins within lipid inverse bicontinuous cubic phases (Q 2) has been
widely studied for many applications, such as protein crystallization or drug delivery of …

Cryo-enzymology provides the possibility to develop unconventional biological reactions
and detect intermediates in ultrafast enzymatic catalysis processes, but also illuminates the …

We present the development of time-programmable functional soft materials. The materials
undergo reversible phase transitions between lyotropic phases with different topologies and …
