The interactions of molecules such as short-chain alcohols with the mammalian plasma membrane are thought to play a role in anesthetic effects. We have examined the concentration-dependent effects of ethanol and n-butanol on the fluidity of planar model lipid bilayer structures supported on mica. The supported model bilayer was composed of 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-phosphatidylcholine (DOPC), cholesterol, and sphingomyelin, and the bilayers were formed by vesicle fusion from extruded unilamellar vesicles (133 nm diameter, polydispersity index of 0.17). Controlled amounts of ethanol and n-butanol were added during vesicle deposition. Translational diffusion constants were obtained utilizing fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) measurements on the micrometer scale with perylene as the fluorophore. The translational diffusion constants increased and then decreased with increasing ethanol concentration, with the bilayer structure degrading at ca. 0.8 M ethanol. A similar trend was observed for n-butanol at lower alcohol concentrations owing to greater interactions with phospholipid bilayer constituents. For n-butanol, the integrity of the planar bilayer structure deteriorated at ca. 0.4 M n-butanol. The results are consistent with bilayer interdigitation.
