A short review of the different approaches to the mechanism of oscillations of electric potential difference between aqueous phases of liquid membrane oscillators is presented. More attention is paid to the mechanisms of oscillations proposed in our laboratory. For systems with cationic surfactant a

Poly(vinyl chloride) membranes loaded with lipids in contact with a solution to be tasted (citric acid) were characterized by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in a frequency range from 100 kHz to 0.1 Hz of AC signal. Positively charged electrode membranes (with benzylhexadecyldimethylammonium

A five-channel taste module based on ion-selective electrodes (ISE) with lipid-polymer membranes was constructed. Five different kinds of lipids or their derivatives were used in PVC membranes as substances transforming taste information into electric signals: benzylcetyldimethylammonium chloride mo
