Porous Materials to Support Bilayer Lipid Membranes for Ion Channel Biosensors by Thai Phung, Yanli Zhang, James Dunlop, Julie E. Dalziel

“…To identify materials suitable as membrane supports for ion channel biosensors, six filter materials of varying hydrophobicity, tortuosity, and thickness were examined for their ability to support bilayer lipid membranes as determined by electrical impedance spectroscopy. Bilayers supported by hydrophobic materials (PTFE, polycarbonate, nylon, and silanised silver) had optimal resistance (14–19 GΩ) and capacitance (0.8–1.6 μF) values whereas those with low hydrophobicity did not form BLMs (PVDF) or were short-lived (unsilanised silver). …”
