Impact of membrane cholesterol content on the resistance of vesicles to surfactant attack

Vesicle leakage experiments were carried out to establish how cholesterol content regulates membrane permeability as induced by surfactant exposure. Vesicles containing up to 50% cholesterol were examined. Four different surfactants were chosen as membrane perturbants, including nonoxynol-9 which is...
