Control of giant vesicle assemblies by stimuli-responsive lipids†
Abstract
We describe a bottom-up synthesis of giant vesicles (GVs) utilizing an artificial stimuli-responsive diazobenzene lipid building block. Controlled by light, the GVs can exhibit dynamic behaviors, including reversible formation, the generation of highly multilamellar assemblies, and vesicle capturing and releasing events.
