Abstract
Time-resolved fluorescence on unilamellar vesicles shows that increasing amounts of anionic, natural lipid lead to a larger increase in polarity close to the headgroups than in the hydrophobic core of the bilayer. The region close to the headgroups is less polar in vesicles containing phosphatic acid rather than phosphatidylserine. A greater membrane curvature increases the mobility of the hydrated headgroups.
