Fick's law has been used in this way to provide a direct relationship between the nanotube diameter and the measurable experimental parameters Deltai (change in current) and nanotube length. Catechol was used to determine the Deltai attributed to its flux out of the nanotube. Comparing the nanotube diameter as a function of nanotube length revealed that membrane elastic energy was playing an important role in determining the size of the nanotube and was different when the tube was connected to either end of two vesicles or to a vesicle on one end and a pipet tip on the other. We assume that repulsive interaction between neck regions can be used to explain the trends observed. This theoretical approach based on elastic energy considerations provides a qualitative description consistent with experimental data.","is_dataset_classified":null,"base_score":2.70805020110221,"endowment":2.70805020110221,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"views":0,"has_version_chain":false,"is_dataset":false,"is_oa":false,"pmid":"20039639","pmcid":"PMC2814003","openalex_id":"https://openalex.org/W2030759414","authors":[],"funders":[{"funder_name":"NIBIB NIH HHS","grant_id":"R01 EB000352","title":null}],"total_grants":1,"fwci":0.6295,"citation_percentile":0.6666987,"influential_citations":0,"citation_trend":[{"year":2012,"count":3},{"year":2013,"count":2},{"year":2014,"count":1},{"year":2015,"count":1},{"year":2016,"count":1},{"year":2018,"count":1},{"year":2020,"count":1},{"year":2021,"count":1},{"year":2022,"count":1}],"oa_status":"green","license":null,"oa_locations":[{"url":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/2814003","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/2814003","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"https://pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.1021/ac902282d","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1021/ac902282d","host_type":"journal"},{"url":"https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20039639","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"http://publications.lib.chalmers.se/publication/111200-steady-state-electrochemical-determination-of-lipidic-nanotube-diameter-utilizing-an-artificial-cell","host_type":"repository"},{"url":"https://research.chalmers.se/en/publication/111200","host_type":"repository"}],"fields_of_study":["Lipid Membrane Structure and Behavior","Electrochemical Analysis and Applications","Conducting polymers and applications","Catechols","Diffusion","Electrochemical Techniques","Liposomes","Models, Molecular","Nanotubes"],"mesh_terms":["Catechols","Diffusion","Liposomes","Models, Molecular","Nanotubes","Electrochemical Techniques"],"keywords":["Chemistry","Nanotube","Electrochemistry","Steady state (chemistry)","Nanotechnology","Chemical engineering","Biophysics","Carbon nanotube","Electrode","Physical chemistry"],"sdg_mappings":[{"sdg_number":0,"sdg_label":"Affordable and clean energy"}],"linked_datasets":[],"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"database_accessions":[],"source":"live","citation_network_status":"fetched"},"created_at":"2026-07-29T12:20:51.592610Z","pmid":null,"pmcid":null,"fwci":null,"citation_percentile":null,"influential_citations":0,"oa_status":null,"license":null,"views":0,"total_file_size_bytes":0,"version_count":0,"fair_f":null,"fair_a":null,"fair_i":null,"fair_r":null,"fair_zscore":null,"fair_rationale":null,"fair_model":null,"fair_agent_version":null,"fair_fulltext_source":null,"fair_has_llm":null,"fair_computed_at":null,"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"db_accessions":[],"linked_datasets":[],"topics":[]}
