ABSTRACT:
An object of the present invention is to provide a method for easily forming an artificial lipid membrane in a short period of time and an artificial lipid membrane forming apparatus suitable for carrying out such method.The present invention relates to a method for forming an artificial lipid membrane using an artificial lipid membrane forming apparatus. The apparatus comprises a substrate, a first spacer, a first thin film, a second spacer, a second thin film, and a cover, wherein a first chamber is formed between the substrate and the first thin film, the first thin film has a first through hole, a second chamber is formed between the first thin film and the second thin film, the second thin film has a second through hole, and the cover has an inlet. The method includes in this order a first electrolytic solution pouring step of pouring an electrolytic solution to the first chamber, a lipid solution pouring step of pouring a lipid solution to the first through hole or the second through hole, and a second electrolytic solution pouring step of pouring the electrolytic solution to the inlet to form the artificial lipid membrane inside the through hole to which the lipid solution is poured.
