title: Interaction of K7Fe3+P2W17O62H2 with supported bilayer lipid membranes on platinum electrode.
abstract: The influence of K(7)Fe(3+)P(2)W(17)O(62)H(2) on l-alpha-phosphatidylcholine/cholesterol bilayer lipid membrane on Pt electrode was studied by voltammetry and AC impedance spectroscopy. The interaction of the polyoxometalates with the BLM can promote the access of Ru(NH(3))(6)(3+) and [Fe(CN)(6)](3-/4-) to the electrode surface. It was found that some kind of pores had been formed on the BLM by AFM. The phenomenon is attributed to the interaction of K(7)Fe(3+)P(2)W(17)O(62)H(2) with phosphatidylcholine phosphate groups located in its outer leaflet. Experimental results are helpful to understand the biological activity of the polyoxometalates in vivo.
