Biophysical Behaviour of Lipid Membranes in Interaction with Nanoparticles in Physiological and Seawater Media

The research of the nanoparticle (NP) delivery systems and the use of NPs both for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes have created a need for understanding the complex interactions of NPs with cells. Membrane-NP interactions are of crucial importance both for the cell uptake and toxicological investigations. The presence of hydrophobic NPs embedded within a lipid bilayer, can lead to changes in lipid packing by modifying interactions amongst the lipd headgroups and/or acyl tails.
