Abstract

Abstract: Four polymerizable lipids were synthesized and used for the formation of synthetic bilayer membranes (vesicles). Two of the lipids were methacryloyl ammonium lipids, one with a methacrylamide at the hydrophilic head group of the lipid (CY-MA) and one with a methacrylate group at the hydrophobic tail of the lipid (w-MA). Thermally initiated polymerization of the monomeric bilayer vesicles gave polymers with retention of vesicle ...
