Figure 4

The fluorescence images of the binary GUVs before electroporation. (A) A schematic drawing of the three different focal planes (bottom, middle and top planes) of the GUVs, not drawn to scale. (B) Two examples of the 2:8 DPPC:DPhPC GUVs, showing different gel-phase domains. The GUVs are visualised by use of fluorescence microscopy, where the dark parts represent the gel-phase domains, and the bright parts the fluid-phase or mixed domains. (C) The two different categories of the 8:2 DPPC:DPhPC GUVs. Left: a homogeneous-GUV, showing no visible domains. Right: a domain-GUV, showing a uniform distribution of dark gel-phase domains on the surface of the GUV. The scale bar is 10 μm.
