The impact of nanomaterials on lung fluids or on the plasma membrane ofliving cells has prompted researchers to examine the interactions betweennanoparticles and lipid vesicles. Recent studies have shown thatnanoparticle-lipid interaction leads to a broad range of structures includingsupported lipid bilayers (SLB), particles adsorbed at the surface orinternalized inside vesicles, and mixed aggregates. Today, there is a need tohave simple protocols that can readily assess the nature of structures obtainedfrom particles and vesicles. Here we apply the method of continuous variationfor measuring Job scattering plots and provide analytical expressions for thescattering intensity in various scenarios. The result that emerges from thecomparison between modeling and experimental measurements is thatelectrostatics plays a key role in the association, but it is not sufficient toinduce the formation of supported lipid bilayers.
