Solvent-assisted Lipid Bilayer (SALB)

SALB
"Simple is the Best"

We have developed a new platform technology known as the solvent-assisted lipid bilayer (SALB) method to fabricate supported lipid bilayers. It is based on lipid self-assembly upon exchange from organic to aqueous solvent. The approach is quick, easy to implement, and compatible with a wide range of lipid compositions and material supports.
