Experimental configurations. Sketches of the geometries of the large unilamellar vesicles interconnected with a common LNT; (A) the "two-vesicle" configuration, where the LNT is connected between the mother vesicle and a small daughter vesicle inside of the mother vesicle, (B) the "tube-only" configuration where the LNT is connected between the tip of a glass pipette and the giant unilamellar vesicle.
