Contribution of the Hydration Force to Vesicle Adhesion on Titanium Oxide by Jackman, Joshua A., Zan, Goh Haw, Zhao, Zhilei, Cho, Nam-Joon

“…Within an experimentally significant range of conditions, the model shows that the magnitude of the repulsive hydration force strongly influences the behavior of adsorbed vesicles, thereby supporting that the hydration force makes a strong contribution to the fate of adsorbed vesicles on titanium oxide. The findings are consistent with literature reports concerning phospholipid assemblies on solid supports and nanoparticles and underscore the importance of the hydration force in influencing the behavior of phospholipid films on hydrophilic surfaces.…”
