Ions modulate stress-induced nano-texture in supported fluid lipid bilayers (2017)
Journal Article
Piantanida, L., Bolt, H., Rozatian, N., Cobb, S., & Voïtchovsky, K. (2017). Ions modulate stress-induced nano-texture in supported fluid lipid bilayers. Biophysical Journal, 113(2), 426-439. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bpj.2017.05.049

Most plasma membranes comprise a large number of different molecules including lipids and proteins. In the standard fluid mosaic model, the membrane function is effected by proteins whereas lipids are largely passive and serve solely in the membrane...

Simultaneous viscosity and density measurement of small volumes of liquids using a vibrating microcantilever (2017)
Journal Article
Payam, A., Trewby, W., & Voïtchovsky, K. (2017). Simultaneous viscosity and density measurement of small volumes of liquids using a vibrating microcantilever. Analyst, 142(9), 1492-1498. https://doi.org/10.1039/c6an02674e

Many industrial and technological applications require precise determination of the viscosity and density of liquids. Such measurements can be time consuming and often require sampling substantial amounts of the liquid. These problems can partly be o...

Direct observation of the dynamics of single metal ions at the interface with solids in aqueous solutions (2017)
Journal Article
Ricci, M., Trewby, W., Cafolla, M., & Voïtchovsky, K. (2017). Direct observation of the dynamics of single metal ions at the interface with solids in aqueous solutions. Scientific Reports, 7, Article 43234. https://doi.org/10.1038/srep43234

The dynamics of ions adsorbed at the surface of immersed charged solids plays a central role in countless natural and industrial processes such as crystal growth, heterogeneous catalysis, electrochemistry, or biological function. Electrokinetic measu... Read More about Direct observation of the dynamics of single metal ions at the interface with solids in aqueous solutions.
