Abstract

We induced stochastic resonance in planar lipid bilayer systems with alamethicin ion channels, and varied alamethicin concentration, membrane area, and applied voltage. We found that membrane-induced microphonic noise significantly affects the signature of stochastic resonance, and that this noise can be used to optimize ion channel-based biosensors.
