Spectroscopy of Membrane Lipid Bilayers
Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy is a powerful and unique tool for the study of matter in its various states, including solids, liquids, liquid crystals, and biological materials. With solid-state 2H NMR spectroscopy, we obtain experimental data pertinent to both structure and dynamics. The role of lipid bilayer membranes is crucial. First, the membrane lipids provide a…Continue Reading Spectroscopy of Membrane Lipid Bilayers
