An interactive computer tutorial package for teaching the principles of nerve biophysics and based on a series of well-documented experiments on the squid giant axon preparation, which illustrate some of the...
A computer simulation of the isolated giant axon of the squid to investigate the biophysical properties of nerve. Describes the preparation, apparatus used to record the resting potential of the axon and the...
An explanation of biophysics and how it is taught in York University.
Proteins and lipids are the basic building blocks of membranes as demonstrated in the molecular model. The functional groups possess hydrophilic and hydrophobic areas. Therefore amphipathic molecules arise...
An introduction to the structure and functions of biological membranes: cell structure and organelle; plant and nerve membranes; separation of membranes from cells and their composition; phospholipid...
Biological membranes form a border between the cell organelles and the outside world. Communication and metabolic activity demonstrated by plasmolysis, protoplasmic streaming, secretion, enzymatic processes,...
The physical properties of water and the interface behaviour of amphipathic molecules promote the organisation of distinctive structures as demonstrated in the hydrophobic/hydrophilic behaviour of...
Individual membrane functions depend on special membrane construction blocks among its proteins. A measuring cell is used to produce specific (reconstructed) endowed model membranes and to investigate their...
Lipids from the erythrocyte membrane form micells and bilayers when dispersed. Freeze-fracturing of natural membranes reveal the inclusion of integral proteins. Cholesterine influences the fluidity of the...
