Lipid Bicelles with biphenyl chains or doped with lanthanides show long lasting remnant orientation after removing the magnetic field due to smectic-like properties. An alternative to pure lipid Bicelles is provided by nanodiscs where the half torus composed by short chain lipids is replaced by proteins. This renders the nano-objects less fragile as they can be used to stabilize membrane protein assemblies to be studied by electron microscopy. Internal dynamics is again similar to liposomes except that the phase transition is abolishe
