Abstract

Formation and quality of single solid supported lipid membranes and double lipid membranes were investigated with single vesicle resolution using label-free evanescence light scattering microscopy (EvSM). For the formation of double lipid membranes we made use of electrostatic interaction between charged lipids and oppositely charged cations.
