TLDR
A monolayer trough with two movable barriers and several compartments is described in this article, where a precision multilayer depositing lift, a simplified Langmuir trough, and a technique for isolating monolayers remaining in contact with water are discussed.Abstract:
A monolayer trough with two movable barriers and several compartments is described. In addition, a precision multilayer depositing lift, a simplified Langmuir trough, and a technique for isolating monolayers remaining in contact with water are discussed. Various applications of this combined instrumentation in the study of monomolecular films are presented.read more

On the formation and structure of self-assembling monolayers. I. A comparative atr-wettability study of Langmuir—Blodgett and adsorbed films on flat substrates and glass microbeads
Rivka Maoz,Jacob Sagiv +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared oleophobic adsorbed monolayers of several long chain compounds and steroid derivatives produced on flat solid substrates by spontaneous adsorption from organic solutions with Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) transferred on identical substrates from the water-air interface.

Interaction of Alzheimer beta-amyloid peptide(1-40) with lipid membranes.
TL;DR: The lipid-peptide interaction is characterized using circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy, lipid monolayers, and deuterium and phosphorus-31 solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to suggest a new mechanism of helix formation induced by the proper alignment of five positive charges of beta AP(1-40) on the negatively charged membrane template.

An applied science perspective of Langmuir-Blodgett films
TL;DR: Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) films were first reported about fifty years ago and since then, LB films have been widely used as model systems in fundamental research.

Local anesthetics and pressure: a comparison of dibucaine binding to lipid monolayers and bilayers
TL;DR: It is suggested from this analogy that the binding of dibucaine does not change the internal pressure in the bilayer phase, at least not in the concentration range of physiological interest (0-2 mM dibukaine) but induces a lateral expansion.

Enhanced light reflection by dye monolayers at the air–water interface
TL;DR: In this paper, the reflection of light from an air-water interface is enhanced by dye containing monolayers in the spectral region of the dye absorption, and the intensity of reflected light depends linearly on the density of chromophores in the mixed monolayer.

Films Built by Depositing Successive Monomolecular Layers on a Solid Surface
TL;DR: Arbor as mentioned in this paper showed that xanthone and lluorenone possess new bands in sulfuric acid sohtions which are associated with the stabilization of the quinonoid structure for these compounds.

A new technique for investigating lipid protein films.
TL;DR: Some results on the interaction of hemiglobin with arachidic acid and stearic acid methyl ester as model substances are presented, indicating that the adsorbed protein is not decoiled.
