Screening ion-channel ligand interactions with passive pumping in a microfluidic bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) chip
We describe a scalable artificial bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) platform for rapid electrophysiological screening of ion channels and transporters. A passive pumping method is used to flow microliter volumes of ligand solution across a suspended bilayer within a microfluidic chip. Bilayers are stable...
