Small-angle scattering model for multilamellar vesicles

Small-angle scattering model for multilamellar vesicles.

A small-angle neutron-x-ray-light-scattering model for multilamellar vesicles is developed on the basis of a simple geometry. N spherical shells with radii of an arithmetic series are allowed for displacements DeltaR which are limited by DeltaR<R/N due to sterical reasons, with R being the radius of the vesicle. The model shows many properties over a large Q range which include a Guinier region...

Global small-angle X-ray scattering data analysis for multilamellar vesicles: the evolution of the scattering density profile model

The highly successful scattering density profile (SDP) model, used to jointly analyze small-angle X-ray and neutron scattering data from unilamellar vesicles, has been adapted for use with data from fully hydrated, liquid crystalline multilamellar vesicles (MLVs). Using a genetic algorithm, this new method is capable of providing high-resolution structural information, as well as determining bi...

Small-angle neutron scattering from multilamellar lipid bilayers: Theory, model, and experiment.

Biological systems as nanoreactors: anomalous small-angle scattering study of the CdS nanoparticle formation in multilamellar vesicles.

The formation of cadmium sulfide (CdS) particles in the gaps between the layers of the multilamellar vesicles is described, introducing a new pathway in the preparation of nanometer-scale particles. The in situ structural characterization of both the CdS particles and the vesicles as a reaction medium was performed in the early and final states of the process by using anomalous small-angle X-ra...

Global SAXS data analysis for multilamellar vesicles: Evolution of the scattering density profile (SDP) model

We adapted the highly successful scattering density profile (SDP) model, which is used to jointly analyze small angle x-ray and neutron scattering data from unilamellar vesicles, for use with data from fully hydrated, liquid crystalline multilamellar vesicles (MLVs). By using a genetic algorithm, this new method is capable of providing high PREPRINT: Journal of Applied Crystallography A Journal...
