  • Direct micro-patterning of lipid bilayers using UV light and selected uses thereof
    Patent number: 7132122
    Abstract: This invention provides novel methods for creation of patterned lipid bilayer membranes as well as methods for refunctionalization of such patterned membranes with selected components. Such components optionally comprise, e.g., lipid bilayer membranes (which optionally comprise specific proteins), proteins, non-biologic moieties, etc.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 30, 2003
    Date of Patent: November 7, 2006
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of California

  • Methods for removing organic compounds from nano-composite materials
    Patent number: 6960327
    Abstract: The present invention provides methods for selectively removing organic compound from a nano-composite material which comprises the organic compound that is dispersed within a solid inorganic compound structure. In particular, methods of the present invention comprise irradiating the nano-composite material with electromagnetic radiation wavelength that is shorter than the wavelength of visible light.
