ABSTRACT:
A method and system are disclosed for allowing significantly increased migration of a molecule across a lipid bilayer membrane. The method includes combining an aqueous solvent medium, in which the lipid bilayer membrane and the molecule are disposed, with a solute. The aqueous solvent medium, the lipid bilayer membrane and the molecule are then exposed to a sufficient partial pressure of the solute to cause the solute to dissolve in the aqueous solvent medium, whereby a significant portion of the solute migrates to the hydrophobic fatty acyl portion of the lipid bilayer membrane. The solute thereby allows a significantly increased migration of the molecule across the lipid bilayer membrane.
