A complete accessory kit for the eONE amplifier family, designed for teaching and fast screening of ion channel functional activity in lipid environments.
Why to choose the BLM kit?
Rapid Bilayer Formation
Achieve stable lipid membranes in less than a minute using the Montal Mueller technique.
Smart Budgeting
Full performance at one-third the cost of traditional systems, thanks to advanced component miniaturization, perfectly tailored to fit academic and research grants.
Ultra-Low Noise Recordings
Best paired with eONE ULN amplifier to guarantee exceptionally clean, publication-ready measurements.
What is inside?

Note: The current amplifier is not included in the kit. We strongly recommend the eONE ULN, or you can explore the entire eONE family to find the model that best fits your requirements.
Cut training time to a minimum
The BLM cuvette MM makes lipid membrane formation rapid and intuitive.
- Montal-Müller Method: Engineered with a vertical septum geometry specifically designed to optimize the classic Montal-Müller technique or the pseudo-air bubble method.
- Zero Leakage: The grease-sealed interface between Delrin components and polyimide foil completely eliminates chamber leaks and constant seal replacements.
- High Stability & Reliability: Achieve stable, high-quality bilayers easily, free from the usual brush-painting frustration.
- Available Materials & Sizes: Predefined septa are included in the kit, while replacement membranes can be purchased separately in Polyimide (aperture sizes: 50, 75, 100, 150 or 200 µm) and Teflon (aperture sizes: 50, 80, 100 µm).
How to perform a Lipid Bilayer experiment using the BLM kit?
| Septum thickness | 50 µm | 50 µm | 50 µm | 50 µm |
| Aperture Ø | 50 µm | 75 µm | 100 µm | 150 µm |
| Typical BLM capacitance (pF) | 30 – 40 | 50 – 60 | 70 – 90 | 120 – 150 |
