Abstract
Many non-reactive organic substances have a profound influence on living cells. Long ago it has been found that the action of these substances is correlated with their physico-chemical properties. Their activity increases with the surface activity or with the distribution coefficient lipid/water. In general one might say that the balance between the hydrophobic and hydrophilic groups in the molecule is of the utmost importance for the strength of their biological activity. As the lipids in a living cell consist—for a large part—in phosphatides and cholesterol, it would be interesting to measure the influence of non-reactive organic substances on systems built from phophatides or cholesterol. This is a rather difficult task, which has been attacked from several angles.
