Preparation of Small Unilamellar Vesicles (SUVs)
15m
Dehydrate Amount0.4 mg of the lipid mixture (40% DOPC, 20% DOPE, 20% DOPS, 20% liver phosphatidylinositol, Avanti Polar Lipids) in a glass tube using a gentle N2 stream.
Allow the lipids to dry DurationOvernight in a vacuum desiccator to remove excess chloroform.
Overnight
Rehydrate the dried lipids by adding Concentration25 millimolar (mM) HEPES Ph7.5 and Concentration200 millimolar (mM) NaCl.
Pipetting
Vortex the mixture to resolubilize the lipids.
Mix
Perform 10 cycles of freeze-thaw by immersing the lipids in liquid nitrogen for a few seconds and then in a Temperature37 °C water bath.
Sonicate the lipids using a small probe tip sonicator at 50% power in 2-second on/off cycles for a total of Duration00:15:00 TemperatureOn ice and a water mixture.
