Figure 4.5

Image of oil lenses suspended in the lipid bilayer shortly after formation. The presence of oil lenses supports the observation of variability in the falling vesicle data at early times and suggests experiments should wait ~30 min after the bilayer is formed before making vesicles to ensure oil is excluded from the bilayer. Oil lenses in the image on the left are circled in the image on the right. Scale bar represents 100 um.
