Abstract

Using the liposomes prepared from dimyristoyl lecithin at temperature below that of phase transition, its was shown that the annealing of liposomes by 340- and 800-MHz microwave radiation required less integral heating of the samples, than it should be expected from the experiments on heating the samples in a thermostat.
