Electroformation of Giant Unilamellar Vesicles from Damp Lipid Films Formed by Vesicle Fusion

Giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) are artificial membrane models which are of special interest to researchers because of their similarity in size to eukaryotic cells. The most commonly used method for GUVs production is electroformation. However, the traditional electroformation protocol involves a...
