Cations Do Not Alter the Membrane Structure of POPC—A Lipid With an Intermediate Area

Cations Do Not Alter the Membrane Structure of POPC—A Lipid With an Intermediate Area

Combining small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), and densitometric measurements, we have studied the interactions of the divalent cations Ca2+ and Mg2+ with the lipid vesicles prepared of a mixed-chain palmitoyl-oleoyl-phosphatidylcholine (POPC) at 25°C. The stru...
