Photo-induced destruction of giant vesicles in methylene blue solutions

Photo-induced destruction of giant vesicles in methylene blue solutions

We study the photodecomposition of phospholipid bilayers in aqueous solutions of methylene blue. Observation of giant unilamellar vesicles under an optical microscope reveals a consistent pattern of membrane disruption as a function of methylene blue concentration and photon density for different su...
