VesicleControl: Software
VesicleControl: Software for the Vesicle Prep Pro device
Using VesicleControl, complex protocols for the Vesicle Prep Pro can be defined and visually inspected. Control of parameters such as voltage amplitude, frequency, temperature and time allow very flexible protocol design for the production of homogeneously-sized vesicles. In particular, due to the control over the temperature, it is possible to generate vesicles of homogeneous lipid distribution using lipids with different phase transition temperatures.

Testimonials & Case Studies
Dr. Eric Stava - Statement about the Vesicle Prep Pro
“The Vesicle Prep Pro has been of great utility in our Bioelectronics research, allowing students and researchers with limited electrophysiology background to easily form giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs). The electronic control lets us alter the size and density of the GUVs, and the transparent chamber allows for excellent visualization of the electro-swelling process.”
Eric Stava, PhD, Research Assistant
University of Wisconsin-Madison, WI, US
Dr. Marisa Rangel - Statement about the Vesicle Prep Pro and Port-a-Patch
“Our planar lipid bilayers are obtained from GUVs prepared with the Nanion Vesicle Prep Pro setup. Together with the Port-a-Patch, Nanion´s state-of-the-art automated patch clamp platform, the efficiency of characterization of pore-forming peptides (and other ionophores from natural sources) in artificial bilayers has greatly increased. Both systems are straightforward and easy to use, allowing high quality, low noise, single channel recordings.”
Marisa Rangel, PhD, Researcher
University of Sao Paulo, Butantan Institute, Sao Paulo, Brazil, WI, US
Prof. Dr. Colin Taylor - Statement about the Port-a-Patch and Vesicle Prep Pro
“We are using the Vesicle Prep Pro and Port-a-Patch in our laboratory to study recombinant channel proteins reconstituted in planar bilayers. The system is easy to use and it makes experiments very efficient. Besides the great equipment, Nanion, with their widespread expertise, is also providing excellent continuous support, helping with methodology optimization and problem solving.”

Data and Applications
GUVs - Average Diameter
Vesicle Prep Pro data and applications:
The Image was kindly provided of Dr. Sonderman/Prof. Behrends, University of Freiburg, Germany.
The GUVs produced with the Vesicle Prep Pro typically range from 1 – 30 μm in diameter, with an average diameter of
approximately 10 μm (60-70%).
Gramicidin - Rapid Internal Solution Exchange
Port-a-Patch and
Vesicle Prep Pro data and applications:
Switching of internal solutions during gramicidin recordings from a lipid bilayer was obtained within seconds. A lipid bilayer was formed using giant unilamellar vesicles. Currents were recorded at a holding potential of +150 mV. The internal solution was switched from HCl to KCl, resulting in lower channel conductance.
MscL - Pressure Clamp Experiments
Port-a-Patch and
Vesicle Prep Pro data and applications:
The Port-a-Patch and the Suction Control Pro was used to study the effect of pressure on functional MscL protein reconstituted in GUVs. Using symmetrical KCl solutions, MscL gating was observed at -30 mBar and -60 mBar (holding potential + 30 mV), shown as outward currents in the data traces.
Bilayer Recordings - Low Noise
Port-a-Patch and
Vesicle Prep Pro data and applications:
Typical recording of the Irms noise level of a bilayer (DPhPC) on the Low Capacitance Holder. Typical values are 220 fA
(10 kHz filter frequency, 50 kHz sampling rate. Cf. 2.3 pA RMS on the standard Port-a-Patch).
Alpha-Hemolysin - DNA Translocation
Port-a-Patch and
Vesicle Prep Pro data and applications:
Data were kindly supplied by Prof. Fritz Simmel, Technical University of Munich, Munich, Germany.
Reconstituted Alpha hemolysin channels are constantly open at positive and negative membrane potentials. Gating is observed as a result of the passage of a single stranded DNA molecule through the pore. Recordings were performed on the Port-a-Patch.
TRPM8 - Bilayer Recording
Port-a-Patch and
Vesicle Prep Pro data and applications:
Data kindly provided by Dr. Zakharian and Dr. Rohac From UMDNJ New Jersey Medical School, Newark, NJ 07103, USA
Shown are single channel events of TRPM8 reconstituted in a planar lipid bilayer. The recordings were made with the with the Port-a-Patch. The channel was activated by PIP2 and methanol. Currents were recorded at 100 mV.
KcsA - Bilayer Recordings
Vesicle Prep Pro data and applicatons:
The image shows a representative current trace recorded from a planar lipid bilayer in which purified KcsA channels were reconstituted (100 mM KCl, asymmetric pH; pH 4/pH 7). A ramp from -100 mV to +100 mV was used to evoke the single channel events.
Download: Application Note
MscL - Pressure Activation
Vesicle Prep Pro data and applications:
Data were kindly supplied by Prof. Boris Martinac, University of QLD, Brisbane, Australia.
Pressure activation of MscL. The MscL channel is gated by pressure, where single channel activity was recorded at 30 mV at the indicated negative hydrostatic pressure. Nanion provides a dedicated suction control device for pressure clamp, found under the Port-a-Patch section.
OmpF - Bilayer Recordings
Vesicle Prep Pro data and applications:
Data were kindly supplied by Prof. Mathias Winterhalter, Jacobs University, Bremen, Germany.
Channels were activated in the presence of spermine (0.5 mM). The downward spikes represent the closure events due to the effect of spermine.
Inositol-Triphosphate 3 Receptor (IP3) - Reconstitution
Vesicle Prep Pro data and applications:
Data were kindly supplied by Prof. Colin Taylor, University of Cambridge, Cambridge, UK.
Representative traces of the IP3 (inositol-triphosphate) receptor were recorded at different voltages in the presence of IP3 (0.2 mM free Ca2+ and 1 mM Na2ATP, 140 mM KCl). Addition of 2 μM IP3 on the cytosolic side evoked openings of the IP3 receptor.
Cytolysin (Bacterial) - Bilayer Recordings
Port-a-Patch and
Vesicle Prep Pro data and applications:
Recordings were kindly supplied by ITC & CNR-Istituto di Biofisica, Trento, Italy.
Traces were recorded in 100 mM KCl, 10 mM Hepes, 0.1 mM EDTA, pH 7 at -40 mV. Lipid: Diphtanoyl-PC.
Alamethicin - Bilayer Recordings
Port-a-Patch and
Vesicle Prep Pro data and applications:
Data were kindly provided by M. Sondermann/Prof. Behrends, Univ. Freiburg.
Alamethicin is a channel forming peptide and, when patch clamped, reveals multiple non-equidistant conductance levels due to formation of alamethicin oligomers in the bilayer. Alamethicin single channel conductances. Recordings from a GUV prepared bilayer in 85 mM KCl at -140 mV.
Gramicidin - Single Channel Analysis
Port-a-Patch and
Vesicle Prep Pro data and applications:
Recordings were kindly supplied by Tohoku University, Tohoku, Japan.
Plotting the current amplitude vs. the voltage reveals conductances of 94.88 pS and 28.28 pS, which correspond to two different gramicidin derivates present in the bilayer. Traces were recorded in 100 mM HCl at the indicated potentials. Clearly two gramicidin derivates (94.88 pS and 28.28 pS) can be distinguished.
Endoplasmatic Reticulum Membrane Protein Translocator (Sec61) - Single Channel recordings
Port-a-Patch and
Vesicle Prep Pro data and applications:
Data were kindly provided by A. Cavalié, M. Jung, R. Zimmermann, Universität des Saarlandes, Homburg, Germany.
Microsomes were fused with GUVs within the VesiclePrepPro. The resulted Proteoliposomes formed a bilayer onto the NPC-1 Chip of the Port-a-Patch. Nice single channel openings could be recorded in symmetrical KCl solution applying a ramp from -110 mV to +100 mV for 400 ms.
