Abstrakt | Quasistable shapes of phospholipid bilayer vesicles obtained by formation in an alternating electric field ŠM.I. Angelova, S. Soleau, Ph. Meleard, J.F. Faucon, P. Bothorel, Prog. Colloid Polym. Sci. 89 (1992) 127; V. Heinrich, R.E. Waugh, Ann. Biomed. Eng. 24 (1996) 595Ć are observed. The vesicles appearing as composed of a mother sphere and a thin tubular myelin-like protrusion, are found to be a common phase in the spontaneous slow shape transformation that yields giant fluctuating phospholipid vesicles of different shapes. In the shape transformation, the myelin-like protrusion, which acts as a reservoir for the membrane area, is integrated into the mother vesicle. | |
