Note
:
Antigenic compounds that can be characterized as "hydrophobic" are able to sensitize liposomes to the action of antibody complement. Dinitrophenyl derivatives of phosphatidylethanolamine and aminocaproyl phosphatidylethanolamine are offered as antigens for the preparation of immunologically responsive liposomal model membranes.
