Abstract: The use of colloid supported lipid bilayers (CSLBs) for assembling colloidal structures has been of recent interest. Here, we use multi-component lipid bilayer membranes formed around anisotropic colloids and show that the curvature anisotropy of… read more here.

Abstract: The development of targeted and efficient antimicrobials for the selective killing of pathogenic bacteria is of great importance, yet remains challenging. Here, we propose a targeted approach to selectively capture and kill microorganisms with colloidal… read more here.
