Giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) are model membrane systems consisting of a single lipid bilayer separating an inner lumen from the outer solution, with dimensions comparable to that of eukaryotic cells. The importance of these biomimetic systems has recently grown with the development of easy and safe methods to assemble GUVs from complex biorelevant compositions. However, size and position control is still a key challenge for GUV formation and manipulation. Here, a gel-assisted formation meth ...[more]
