Laboratory of Electrophysiology

LOCATION: Building 8, 1st Floor, Room Ia.005

RESEARCH TOPICS:
- Functional characterization of plant and animal ion channels and transporters.
- Investigation of permeabilization mechanisms of pore-forming macromolecules in Black Lipid Membranes.

The activity of the laboratory directed by Carpaneto has been devoted to the investigation 
of the molecular mechanisms controlling ion transport through plant/animal vacuolar/plasma membranes 
using electrophysiological, biophysico-chemical and wide-field fluorescence microscopy techniques.

RESEARCH GROUP MEMBERS: Armando Carpaneto, Antonella Gradogna (IBF-CNR), Cristiana Picco (IBF-CNR)

LINK TO RESEARCH LINES, PROJECTS AND PUBLICATIONS: ORCID: 0000-0002-5060-3657

LABORATORY EQUIPMENT: 
Patch-clamp/Black Lipid Membrane Setup
 

TEACHING ACTIVITIES: Experimental activity for Bachelor and Master thesis in Biology, Environmental and Natural Sciences, and Biotechnology. The lab  is also used for practical classes in Electrophysiology.
