FakirSlides are ready-to-use coverslips with micro- and nanostructures to induce diverse and well-controlled topological signals in living cells or model planar membranes.
Fabricated in borosilicate glass, they are compatible with all types of advanced microscopes and provide a solid support for long-term experiments. They have been successfully used to manipulate the membrane morphology of living cells and lipid bilayers, and observe the effects of curvatures on membrane protein dynamics, cytoskeleton reorganization and cell migration.
