Abstract
Liposomes containing small amounts of porphyrin-phospholipid (PoP) have been shown to encapsulate small molecular weight cargos and then release them upon exposure to red light. A putative mechanism involves transient pore formation in the bilayer induced by PoP-mediated photo-oxidation of unsaturated lipids. However, little is known about the properties of such pores. This study assesses whether large carbohydrate and protein molecules could be...
