Abstract
Kinetics of vesicle adsorption on and surfaces was investigated for vesicle sizes from 25 to 200 nm. On nonruptured vesicles are adsorbed up to a critical coverage, after which spontaneous rupture and bilayer formation occurs in qualitatively the same manner for all vesicle sizes. On adsorption of nonruptured vesicles continues up to saturation. A comparison between the kinetics at low coverages on and where intact vesicles adsorb on both surfaces, reveals that the vesicles on are more flattened than nonruptured vesicles adsorbed on indicating a stronger vesicle-surface interaction on
