Giant Plasma Membrane Vesicle based Bioassay In summary, our newly developed equipped giant plasma membrane vesicles, GPMVs represent the closest eucaryotic cell-mimics on the market up to now. This is due to their cell derived plasma membrane and cell plasma within their cavities, a combination that offers real advantage of being simpler than a real cell, because the cavity of a GPMV does not contain large cellular organelles nor do GPMVs require cell cultuing and present high stabilty at a range of temperatures. Therefore, GPMVs are ideal candidates as a platform to visualize and study i) transmembrane processes, ii) molecular interactions, iii) diffusion processes and iv) (enzyme) reactions in a confined space, without using laborious cell culturing in aseptic conditions.

MemO3 GmbH
Green and Sustainable Membrane Technology Wasser ist der Quell des Lebens. Das Leben darin ist jedoch stark von gelösten Gasen und Stoffen abhängig. Nur wie kommen diese da hinein? Die Idee von MemO3 basiert auf einer speziellen Plattformtechnik auf Basis von Membranverfahren, mit dem Gase direkt ausgetauscht werden können ohne konventionellen Umweg über «Blubberblasen». In der Biotechnologie eingesetzt, werden bis zu 30% mehr Leistung pro Fermentern erwartet – oder Trinkwasser umweltfreundlich mit Ozon anstatt mit Chlor entkeimt.
