(A) Average direct lysis area strain, αdir-lyse, of SOPC vesicles in alcohol/water mixtures obtained after subtracting out from the apparent lysis area strain, αlyse, the area increases due to smoothing out thermal shape undulations. Differences between control and alcohol-exposed vesicles were statistically significant (P < 0.05) as evaluated by Student's t-test (α = 0.05) except for values at 2.47 M of methanol, 1.30 M of propanol, 0.33 M, and 0.55 M of butanol. (B) Average lysis tension, τlyse, values of SOPC vesicles in alcohol/water mixtures. Differences between control and alcohol-exposed vesicles were statistically significant (P < 0.05) as evaluated by Student's t-test (α = 0.05), except for values at 2.47 M and 4.94 M of methanol and 0.11 M of butanol. Symbols are methanol (diamonds), ethanol (squares), propanol (triangles), and butanol (circles). Values are based on 10 vesicles or more. Bars indicate 1 SD.
