GISANS directed to study lipid bilayer structures on nanowire arrays

Abstract: Nanowires are increasingly being used in life science to interact with living cells, for example as nanometer probes. The interaction between the cell membrane, i.e. a lipid bilayer, and the nanowires is not fully understood. In this proposal we will study the structure of the lipid bilayer with time-of-flight (TOF) grazing incident small angle neutron scattering (GISANS). We will also use the lipid bilayer on nanowires as curved model membrane and anchor membrane proteins in the bilayer. This is done to study the how the membrane proteins are affected by the curvature of the lipid bilayer.
