AFM studies of the effect of temperature and electric field on the structure of a DMPC-cholesterol bilayer supported on a Au(111) electrode surface

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used to characterize a phospholipid bilayer composed of 70 mol % 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DMPC) and 30 mol % cholesterol, at a Au(111) electrode surface. Results indicate that addition of cholesterol relaxes membrane elastic stress, increases mem...
