Schematic figure of the proteoliposome assay with reconstituted aquaporin for functional analysis of H2O2 transport using a 96-well format. In order to provide the detection system for H2O2 transported via the lipid bilayer, Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and Amplex Red are encapsulated in the lipid vesicles. The aquaporin mediated transport (orange trace) is more efficient than simple diffusion (blue trace) giving rise to a faster increase in the fluorescent signal as compared to background.
