Thermophoretic migration of vesicles depends on mean temperature and head group chemistry

Thermal gradients are shown to provide a robust and chemically specific driving force to liposomes. Here the authors show controlled direction of migration of unilamellar lipid vesicles by varying the temperature in the suspension and the exposed polar lipid head groups.
