摘要
We monitor the effect of transversal membrane asymmetry on the morphology of giant uni-lamellar vesicles in sugar and polymer solutions. The shapes of fluid lipid vesicles are governed by the bending elasticity of their membrane which is characterized by the bending modulus and the spontaneous curvature of the bilayer. We present a recently developed technique for the measurement of the spontaneous curvature using quantitative phase contrast microscopy. Different mechanisms for elastic membrane asymmetry and the role of the bending energy concept for the morphology of cellular organelles are discussed.
