[Definitions of biological characteristic quantities].

Abstract

In this paper, the interaction is searched between a new biological field and a growing organism. There are just yielded many analogies to mechanic and electrodynamic. The special comparison between a biological axiom previously defined and the OHM's Law shows deep analogies to electrotechnic. Through that it's possible to understand better the new already used terms. With help by this comparison special electronical definitions can take over into biology. 2 examples shown the construction of statical biological characteristics from which altogether 10 characteristic values can derivated. Finally, a list shows all important relations of the framed hypothesis.

Lipid rafts: at a crossroad between cell biology and physics.

Membrane lateral heterogeneity is accepted as a requirement for the function of biological membranes and the notion of lipid rafts gives specificity to this broad concept. However, the lipid raft field is now at a technical impasse because the physical tools to study biological membranes as a liquid that is ordered in space and time are still being developed. This has lead to a disconnection between the concept of lipid rafts as derived from biochemical and biophysical assays and their existence in the cell. Here, we compare the concept of lipid rafts as it has emerged from the study of synthetic membranes with the reality of lateral heterogeneity in biological membranes. Further application of existing tools and the development of new tools are needed to understand the dynamic heterogeneity of biological membranes.
