✦ Synopsis

The widely-supported proposal that the addition of cholesterol to phospholipid in hydrated systems generates a physical state intermediate between liquid crystalline and gel and thereby eliminates the characteristic phospholipid liquid crystalline--gel phase transition is re-examined in relation to recent extensions of X-ray diffraction studies to cover a wider range of phospholipids.
