The thermodynamics of general and local anesthesia [PDF]

open access: yesBiophys. J. 2014, 106: 2143-2156, 2014
General anesthetics are known to cause depression of the freezing point of transitions in biomembranes. This is a consequence of ideal mixing of the anesthetic drugs in the membrane fluid phase and exclusion from the solid phase. Such a generic law provides physical justification of the famous Meyer-Overton rule.
