Engineering and development of model lipid membranes mimicking the HeLa cell membrane.
Cells are complex systems whose interaction with nanocarriers, i.e., liposomes, are continuously under investigation to improve drug uptake. Model membranes

Characterization of monolayers and liposomes that mimic lipid composition of HeLa cells.
In this work, based on several studies, we develop an artificial lipid membrane to mimic the HeLa cell membrane using
