Electrodes for Membrane Surface Science. Bilayer Lipid Membranes Tethered by Commercial Surfactants on Electrochemical Sensors

ABSTRACTBilayer lipid membranes (BLMs), especially self-assembled bilayer lipid membranes on solid supports (s-BLMs), have been used in the last three years as lipid bilayer-based biosensors. In this paper, we will describe as well as review briefly our work on s-BLMs and closely related systems including the preparation and characterization of s-BLMs, hydrogen peroxide-sensitive electrodes based on s-BLMs, alkaline-pretreated aluminum electrodes as pH sensors, immobilization of ferrocene on a s-BLM as anamperometric sensor of Fe(CN)63-/4- ions, cyclic voltanmmetry studies of s-BLMs modified with electron mediators, TCPBQ/TCOBQ modified s-BLMs for pH measurements, TCNQ-modified s-BLMs for glucose detection, and s-BLMs on interdigital electrodes prepared by microelectronic techniques.

New Research

This review identifies the ways in which tethered bilayer lipid membranes (tBLMs) can be used for the identification of the actions of antimicrobials against lipid bilayers. Much of the new research in this area has originated, or included researchers from, the southern hemisphere, Australia and New Zealand in particular. More and more, tBLMs are replacing liposome release assays, black lipid membranes and patch-clamp electrophysiological techniques because they use fewer reagents, are able to obtain results far more quickly and can provide a uniformity of responses with fewer artefacts. In this work, we describe how tBLM technology can and has been used to identify the actions of numerous antimicrobial agents.
