  1. 6. Lipid bilayers and their interactions with the antimicrobial peptide LL37: a TIR Raman study

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för kemivetenskap (CHE)

    Author : Rebecca Jacob; [2016]
    Keywords : TIR; Raman; LL37; lipid; bilayers; antimicrobial; peptide; AMP; resistance; antibiotics; DMPC; DOPC; DOPE; DOPG;

    Abstract : As a direct consequence of the misuse of antibiotics since its first discovery, bacteria have developed extensive resistance mechanisms making them once again potential lethal threats. This eventuality has triggered a vast research effort from scientists worldwide to find solutions to mitigate antimicrobial resistance. READ MORE

  3. 7. Lipid Bilayers on Planes and in Micropipettes - Two model systems to study binding of DivIVA to flat and negatively curved membranes

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Fysikalisk kemi; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

    Author : Elisabeth Baumann; [2016]
    Keywords : supported lipid bilayer; DivIVA; curvature; TIRF; FRAP; epifluorescence microscopy; micropipette; model system; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : The aim of this thesis work was to form and characterize model systems of cell membranes on planar supports and in micropipettes. Firstly, supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) were formed on glass slides after an existing experimental procedure. READ MORE
