“…This suggests that the two kinds of swelling can be traced to differences in the vesicle membranes. Luchtel et al (Luchtel et al, 1991) also proposed that vesicle rupture was mediated by the vesicle membrane, and suggested that it is permeable to monovalent anions and cations of all valencies, and that the movement of these ions into the vesicle causes osmotic influx of water. Given the high concentrations of Na + and Cl -in seawater, it is indeed likely that their concentration gradients would Lowercase letters indicate significant differences (P<0.05) among control treatments, and uppercase letters indicate significant differences (P<0.05) among solutions containing mercury.…”

“…Vesicles can be stabilized in concentrated (1 mol l −1 or higher) solutions containing polyvalent anions such as citrate, sulfate and phosphate, but appear to rupture in solutions containing monovalent anions, regardless of the valency of the associated cation (Luchtel et al, 1991;Salo et al, 1983). Based on these observations, Luchtel et al (Luchtel et al, 1991) hypothesized that ions from seawater enter the vesicle down their concentration gradients, resulting in an influx of water and the swelling and rupture of the vesicle.…”
