The pH-dependent transformation of micro-sized giant vesicles comprised of amphiphilic poly(methacrylic acid)-block-poly(methyl methacrylate-random-methacrylic acid) was investigated in order to explore the possibility of using the giant vesicles as artificial models of biomembranes. The vesicles prepared by the photopolymerization-induced self-assembly in an aqueous methanol solution retained their spherical shape and size when placed in water at pH 7.1. The vesicles were disrupted by a pH increase and finally dissociated into micelles at pH 12.8. The vesicles were reconstructed by decreasing the pH to 7.5; however, they had a film-like morphology due to the interaggregation by the salt generated during the neutralization process. The film-like morphology was transformed into spherical vesicles when placed in an aqueous methanol solution. The reconstructed spherical vesicles included budding and hand-shaped vesicles, indicating that spherical vesicles were formed by the budding separation and by way of a bilayer-rod transition.
