Gold nanoparticle-lipid bilayer interactions

The interactions of ligand-capped gold nanoparticles with lipid bilayers are investigated. The properties determining the mechanism of nanoparticle interaction using synthetic membrane models are explored. First, a specific interaction, incorporation of nanoparticles into the bilayers, is examined u...
