Abstract:
The occurrence of collective excitations in an ionic medium on the surface of lipid membranes was shown. The excitations are due to a fast lateral mobility of ions and the excitation of high-frequency displacement currents in the Stern's layer at the charged surface of the membrane. These effects determine the mechanism of induction of resonant dipole moments on lipid vesicles which can underlie the effect of "recognition" and the autooscillation mode of aggegation of vesicles in a colloidal solution.
