Open AccessSpontaneous bilayer wrap** of virus particles by a phospholipid Langmuir monolayer
We report here the spontaneous formation of lipid-bilayer-wrapped virus particles, following the injection of “naked” virus particles into the subphase of a Langmuir trough with a liquid monolayer of lipids at...

Ordering in two dimensions: Optical textures in monolayers
Optical studies of Langmuir monolayers of simple amphiphiles such as fatty acids and esters by polarized fluorescence microscopy and Brewster-angle microscopy reveal a large variety of textures including strip...

Phase transitions and domain structures in ester and acid monolayers
Fluorescence microscopic studies of ester and acid monolayers show the existence of several condensed phases, in accord with recent diffraction measurements. Studies with polarized excitation reveal "star defe...

Experimental Studies of Phase Transitions and Pattern Formation in Two Dimensions
The technique of fluorescence microscopy has been utilized in studies of the equilibrium phase behavior and the kinetics of phase transitions and pattern formation in monolayers at the air/water interface. A b...

Structural Studies in Langmuir Monolayers by Fluorescence Microscopy: A New Approach to the Phase Diagram of N-Pentadecanoic Acid at the Air-Water Interface
Fluorescence microscopy (sometimes also called epifluorescence), when coupled with low-light level camera detection, is sensitive enough to observe the structure of monomolecular films a few Å thick deposited ...
