Phospholipid-stabilized microbubbles: Influence of shell chemistry on cavitation threshold and binding to giant uni-lamellar vesicles

SP Wrenn, M Mleczko, G Schmitz - Applied Acoustics, 2009 - Elsevier
We demonstrate the feasibility of covalently linking a single microbubble to a single, giant
uni-lamellar vesicle (GUV). Such a combination of GUV plus microbubble might prove useful …
