Abstract
Processes occurring with the participation of radiolytic radicals in the low-temperature radiolysis of aqueous liposome dispersions were studied. The initial radiation-chemical yields of the resulting radicals were determined, and the transformations of these radicals upon freezing-out the systems were examined. It was found that ionol (2,6-di-tert-butyl-4-methylphenol) introduced into the lipid bilayer of liposomes is an effective scavenger of radiolytic species formed in a frozen (77 K) dispersion upon irradiation.
