Investigating Interactions of Biomembranes and Alcohols: A Multiscale Approach
, 2004 We study the interaction of lipid bilayers with short chain alcohols using molecular dynamics on different length scales. We use detailed atomistic modeling and modeling on the length scale where an alcohol is just an amphiphilic dimer.
