Figure 8.
(a) Dependence of the hydrodynamic radius of the coated liposome as a function of the number of layers. N = 0 corresponds to the bare liposome. The DOPC:DODAB compositional ratio is 70:30. (b) Variation of the diffusion coefficient, D, with N. In the bare liposome, D changes with the % of DODAB. The inset shows the dependence of the thickness of the first PSS layer on the DODAB content of the bare liposome for some selected percentages of DODAB on the template liposome. (c) Cryo-TEM image of the bare liposome. (d) Cryo-TEM image of the liposome coated with four layers of PSS/PAH.
