When engineering lipid membranes for applications, it is essential to characterize them to avoid artifacts introduced by manipulation and the experimental environment. Wide-angle X-ray scattering is a powerful structural characterization tool for well-ordered lipid systems. It reveals remarkable differences in rotational order parameters for samples prepared in different ways. New data and perspectives are presented here for multilamellar systems that support and extend the characterization work on unilamellar systems that is reported by Watkins et al. in this issue of ACS Nano.
在设计用于各种应用的脂质膜时，对其进行表征以避免操作和实验环境引入的假象至关重要。广角X射线散射是用于有序脂质系统的强大结构表征工具。它揭示了以不同方式制备的样品在旋转序参数方面的显著差异。本文给出了关于多层系统的新数据和观点，这些数据和观点支持并扩展了沃特金斯等人在本期《美国化学会纳米》杂志上报道的关于单层系统的表征工作。
