Abstract

The rupture of cationic giant vesicles (see the picture) in the presence of anionic vesicles, or the reverse, on exposure to digitonin is dependent on the respective cholesterol levels (0-50 mol%). Thus a disparate giant vesicle population can be chemically induced to release the contents from only a portion of its members.
