None signifies no or little vesicle adsorption. IV, immobile vesicles. Bilayer–bilayer has a characteristic diffusion coefficient similar to that of glass. RM bilayer, reduced-mobility bilayer. V, vesicle layer. Approximate diffusion coefficients, D, are given and have units of μm2 s–1. The D* value was obtained upon addition of 2 M NaCl.
