Correlating Lipid Membrane Permeabilities of Imidazolium Ionic Liquids with Their Cytotoxicities on Yeast, Bacterial, and Mammalian Cells

Alkyl-imidazolium chloride ionic liquids (ILs) have been broadly studied for biochemical and biomedical technologies. They can permeabilize lipid bilayer membranes and have cytotoxic effects, which makes them targets for drug delivery biomaterials. We assessed the lipid-membrane permeabilities of IL...
