The sulfadiazine/ lipid molar ratio was varied from 10(-3) up to 1. It was found that the DPPE-DPPG/water system is drastically affected by the sulfadiazine, but there is no concentration effect in a wide range of sulfadiazine/ lipid molar ratios from 10(-2) up to 2 center dot 10(-1). The DSC and freeze-fracture methods reveal that a homogeneous incorporation of the sulfadiazine molecules occurs in the liquid crystalline phase while in the gel phase separation appears. The different local structures can be classified into two different types: vesicle-like and block-type. Although the surface morphology of the domains of both types shows lamellar arrangement, the blocks are constituted from closely packed long units.
