Line tensions of pore edge in DOPC membrane.

γ, pN	Our average value	Our limiting values	Experimentally determined values
Small pores	14.2	12.5–17.0					11.545	10.551	11.652
Large pores	22.2	19.5–27.4	6.9 or 20.753	11.450	27.710	1854

Our calculated values are presented on Fig. 4B (average values) and Fig. 4D (limiting values). Small pores correspond to the local minimum of the line tension dependence γ(r); large pores correspond to r → ∞.
