Old work

I studied the orientation and rotation mobility of molecules in membranes with Fluorescence depolarization techniques.
The effects of oxysterols and cholesterol on the structure of membranes. What is the relation with artherosclerosis?
The effects of azones on the human skin. Azones make the skin more permeable to medicines, enabling drugs to be administered through the skin without using injections.
The orientation of vitamin A and E in membranes
The orientation of the excitation and emission moments of tetra- butyl-perylene, a possible new probe molecule for membranes.
