Effect of intra-membrane C 60 fullerenes on the modulus of elasticity and the mechanical resistance of gel and fluid lipid bilayers
Penetration and partition of C60 to the lipid bilayer core are both relevant to C60 toxicity, and useful to realise C60 biomedical potential. A key aspect is the effect of C60 on bilayer mechanical properties. Here, we present an experimental study on the mechanical effect of the incorporation of C6...
