2 Summary Introduction Tracking methods and parameters Etching MscL Openings

3 Introduction Nanopores as detectors PET films are used to support a phospholipid bilayer MscL (Mechano Sensitive Channels of Large Conductance)

4 Tracking Coll. GANIL, Caen, France 1 Kr low intensity beam Stopper ~60 µm Ion detection one track Stopper Kr low intensity beam ~60 µm mutiple tracks

5 Tracking PET and/or PC films (thickness 6 and 13 μm) PET : PolyEthylene Terephthalate PC : PolyCarbonate Use of a SME Krypton beam through 7 stacked films

6 Tracking 27 cm 4 cm 0 mm nothing 15 mm 1047 tracks 30 nothing 45 1 track 60 2 tracks 75 1 track 90 1 track 105 nothing tracks 135 nothing tracks track track track 210 nothing tracks 240 nothing tracks Tracks etched to get Pores, located on the axis

7 Chemical etching 2 + etchant one pore 3 BMD, Gröningen, NL φ = Pore diameter 4 LG φ = G= Electric conductance nπσ

8 Chemical etching 2 nights exposure to UV Bath (5 min) in NaOH 2M at 50 C Subsequent work on pores about 300 nm

9 Aim Track-etched monopore membrane with supported bilayer (Coll. Gröningen) Liposome MscL Protein assembly ~300 nm 13 µm

10 Strategy Collapsing unfunctionalized liposomes Stabilizing with an agarose gel Stable over 3 days

11 Results Membrane capacitance signal in a lipid bilayer Membrane capacitance (500 pf) Current-voltage relationship in the lipid bilayer current (pa) 0 Bilayer deosn t leake any ions

12 Results Agarose Liposome The agarose mesh size and dimensions were not suitable for the diffusion

13 Bio-inspired membranes Confined biological ionic channels Polymeric membrane K + Na +, Mg 2+, Ca 2+ H + Cl - Balme, et al., Nano Letters, : p SO 4 2-,PO µm 15 nm

14 Reading macromolecules Macromolecule detection through a single nanopore Robertson et al.,2007 Kasianowicz et al., 2008
