Temperature controlled transformations of giant unilamellar vesicles of amphiphilic triblock copolymers synthesized via microfluidic mixing

We report on a simple approach for synthesis of temperature-responsive giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) from poly(N-vinylcaprolactam)15-block-poly(dimethylsiloxane)65-block-poly(N-vinylcaprolactam)15 (PVCL15-PDMS65-PVCL15) triblock copolymer and non-temperature responsive small and giant vesicles f...
