Molecular arrangements and interconnected bilayer formation induced by alcohol or polyalcohol in phospholipid vesicles

- Vesicles were made with hydrogenate phosphatidylcholine and a penetration enhancer.
- Alcohol or polyalcohol was used as penetration enhancer.
- Vesicle structure was deeply investigated by SAXS and DSC studies.
- Macroscopic behavior of vesicles was studied by rheological analysis.
- Overall studies demonstrate the formation of interconnected vesicles.
