Abstract
⺠At low conc., surfactin (SF) binds to the boundary between gel and fluid domains. ⺠At conc. close to CMC, SF induces a high ordering effect of the bilayer. ⺠At high conc., SF destabilizes totally the bilayer with formation of large particles. ⺠SF interacts both with the membrane polar heads and the acyl chain region.
