The interaction of surfactants with the vesicle membrane of the negatively charged lipid, dilauroylphosphatidic acid, was investigated through their effect on the gel-to-liquid-crystaifine phase transition of the lipid bilayer. Three types of surfactants (anionic, cationic and non-ionic) with differ
