Couverture de l’ouvrage Biomimetic Lipid Membranes: Fundamentals, Applications, and Commercialization
This book compiles the fundamentals, applications and viable product strategies of biomimetic lipid membranes into a single, comprehensive source. It broadens its perspective to interdisciplinary realms incorporating medicine, biology, physics, chemistry, materials science, as well as engineering and pharmacy at large. The book guides readers from membrane structure and models to biophysical chemistry and functionalization of membrane surfaces. It then takes the reader through a myriad of surface-sensitive techniques before delving into cutting-edge applications that could help inspire new research directions. With more than half the world's drugs and various toxins targeting these crucial structures, the book addresses a topic of major importance in the field of medicine, particularly biosensor design, diagnostic tool development, vaccine formulation, micro/nano-array systems, and drug screening/development.

  • Provides fundamental knowledge on biomimetic lipid membranes;
  • Addresses some of biomimetic membrane types, preparation methods, properties and characterization techniques;
  • Explains state-of-art technological developments that incorporate microfluidic systems, array technologies, lab-on-a-chip-tools, biosensing, and bioprinting techniques;
  • Describes the integration of biomimetic membranes with current top-notch tools and platforms;
  • Examines applications in medicine, pharmaceutical industry, and environmental monitoring.

Dr. Fatma Neşe KÖK is currently Associated Professor in the Molecular Biology and Genetics Department of Istanbul Technical University, Turkey. She graduated from the Chemical Engineering Department at the Middle East Technical University and received her M.Sc. and Ph.D degrees from Biotechnology Program at the same University in 1997 and 2001, respectively. After receiving a postdoctoral research fellowship from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation, she spent 2.5 years in Germany, in a joint project of Max Planck Institute (MPI) for Polymer Research (Mainz) and MPI for Biochemistry (Martinstred) (2002-2005) working on artificial lipid membranes. Her research interests include biomaterials and tissue engineering scaffold design, biosensors, controlled release systems, and construction and characterization of artificial lipid bilayers. 

Dr. Ahu Arslan Yildiz is currently Assistant Professor in the Bioengineering Department at the Izmir Institute of Technology (IZTECH). Previously, she was an Assistant Professor at Okan University's Genetics and Bioengineering Department and a visiting fellow at the Canary Center for Cancer Early Detection, Department of Radiology, Stanford University School of Medicine. She received her BSc degree in Chemistry in 2003 from Hacettepe University and the MSc degree in 2006 in Chemistry from Middle East Technical University. She received her Ph.D. in Biology in 2010 from the Max-Planck Institute Polymer Research and Johannes Gutenberg University. She specializes in the field of artificial cell membrane and membrane receptor research. Her research interests include applications of biotechnology, including biomimetic systems, biomaterials, tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, 3D cell culture, diagnostic tools, drug screening and lab-on-a-chip microfluidic devices.
