  • Title: Biomimetic monolayer and bilayer membranes made from amphiphilic block copolymer micelles.
    Author: Goertz MP, Marks LE, Montaño GA.
    Journal: ACS Nano; 2012 Feb 28; 6(2):1532-40. PubMed ID: 22251101.
    Abstract:
    The deposition of amphiphilic poly(ethylene oxide)-block-poly(butadiene) (PEO-b-PBD) copolymer micelles is demonstrated on solid substrates. Depending upon surface chemistry, micelle adsorption creates either monolayer or bilayer films. Lateral diffusion measurements reveal that strong coupling between hydrophilic surfaces and PEO blocks creates immobile bilayers, while monolayers retain the fluidity previously observed in vesicular assemblies.
