The main purposes of this research project is to develop an understanding of surface interactions of phyllosilicates with DNA and nucleotides (prepared in various forms) indispensable to establish new parameters to support theories for the origin of the life and to implement new bio-electronics components. The start up stage of project will concern the recognition of suitable phyllosilicates to study interactions between surface and biological matter (DNA and nucleotides). Previous studies (Valdrè et al., 2004; Valdrè, 2005) have found that the (001) surfaces at the brucite-like interlayer, up to several micrometer long filaments of DNA and nucleotides may form at room temperature and at atmospheric pressure.
