Abstract

In article number 1805046, Jaakko Akola, Marco Maccarini, and co-workers use neutron reflectometry and molecular dynamics simulations to quantify how the interaction between cationic functionalized gold nanoparticles and model lipid membranes depends on temperature and the lipid charge. The combination of scattering studies and the computational approach provides a detailed molecular view of the mechanisms governing nanoparticle incorporation and membrane destabilization.
