Abstract:

Numerous studies of vesicle chemistry have been reported. Most of these have involved submicroscopic vesicles diameter ca. 20-200 micrometers and several studies have involved giant vesicles GVs diameter ca. 10-200 micrometers. A notable feature available to GV, but not to submicroscopic, vesicle chemistry is the ability to observe the effects of chemical processes on the vesicles themselves in real time by optical microscopy. On the other hand, the course of submicroscopic vesicle but not that of GV processes can often be followed by spectroscopic methods.
