Abstract:
The influence of D-glucose on a lipid solid support system with the aid of impedance spectrocopy as a preliminary attempt for the biosensing of medical relevant molecules was studied. In spite of some shortcomings, s-BLM's proved to be an appropriate model for the study of lipid membrane-D-glucose interactions. The shortcomings were the roughness of the metal support, and the lack of homogeneity in the monolayer or multilayer lipid structures.
