Abstract: "Micropipette aspiration was used to test mechanical strength and water permeability of giant-fluid bilayer vesicles composed of polyunsaturated phosphatidylcholine PC lipids." |
| Comments |
P.324 left column 2nd paragraph: "Measurements of apparent water permeability (Pfapp) were performed on at least 10 vesicles for each type of lipid. The results (±SD) are listed in Table 1 and plotted as a histogram in order of increasing unsaturation in Fig. 4. The apparent permeabilities were found to increase modestly with mono- and dimono-unsaturation, but incorporation of alternating cis-double bonds led to a significant augmentation of permeability. The semi-log plot in Fig. 5 demonstrates that log(apparent permeability) varies linearly with the reduced temperature of each lipid relative to the gel-liquid crystalline phase transition temperature reported in the literature (Table 1)." |
