• Abstract

  Multilamellar systems formed by regularly spaced bilayers have been used as host phases for colloidal particles or biomolecules opening a wide field of applications in material science and biomedicine, based on manipulation of spatial organization of particles in nanometric scale. The possibility of preparing DNA and non-cationic lipid complexes has been experimentally demonstrated some y…

• Abstract

  Changes in the chemical composition of the membrane are responsible for changes in their mechanical properties that are manifested in different forms of three-dimensional organization and influence several biological processes such as, for example, the fusion of membranes. In addition to the van der Waals forces and the hydration force, undulation fluctuations contribute to a steric repul…

• Abstract

  Since last year I have a scientific cooperation with researchers from Centre de Recherché Paul Pascal concerning structural and elastic properties of lipid membranes and formation of supramolecular structures of lipids and DNA. Under-graduate and graduate students have participate of a common program of research developed by both teams. A convention between USP and Bordeaux University h…
