Advantages of statistical analysis of giant vesicle flickering for bending elasticity measurements
We show how to greatly improve precision when determining bending elasticity of giant unilamellar vesicles. Taking advantage of the well-known quasi-spherical model of liposome flickering, we analyze the full ...

Elastic properties of lipid bilayer containing modified lipids
The addition of modified (stealth, grafted) lipids to a phosphatidylcholine bilayer changes the elastic properties of the membrane. The dependence of the bending and stretching elasticities of the bilayer on t...

A comparison of DMPC membranes mixed with melittin or C12E5
The effect of adding the defect-forming molecules melittin and C12E5 to DMPC membranes has been studied and the corresponding phase diagrams established. Light, X-ray and neutron small-angle scattering have been ...

AC Field Controlled Formation of Giant Fluctuating Vesicles and Bending Elasticity Measurements
It is shown that the formation of giant fluctuating unilamellar vesicles can be considerably improved by applying an AC electric field during the swelling of the lipid. The analysis of the thermal fluctuations...
