Dual mechanical impact of β-escin on model lipid membranes

Dual mechanical impact of β-escin on model lipid membranes

Understanding the mechanical behavior of biological membranes is of paramount importance in cell biophysics and in developing new biomaterials for medicine. In this study, we delve into the mechanical impact of β-escin, commonly referred to as escin, a naturally occurring biosurfactant derived from...
