Small-angle X-ray scattering has been employed to study how the introduction of paracetamol and acetylsalicylic acid into a liposome bilayer system affects the system's nanostructure. An X-ray scattering model, developed for multilamellar liposome systems [Pabstet al.(2000),Phys. Rev. E,62, 4000–4009], has been used to fit the experimental data and to extract information on how structural parameters, such as the number and thickness of the bilayers of the liposomes, thickness of the water layer in between the bilayers, size and volume of the head and tail groups, are affected by the drugs and their concentration. Even though the experimental data reveal a complicated picture of the drug–bilayer interaction, they clearly show a correlation between nanostructure, drug and concentration in some aspects. The localization of the drugs in the bilayers is discussed.

Five aqueous solutions of ZnSO4 of concentrations ranging from 0.6M to 3.1 M were examined by X-ray diffraction. In the correlation functions no concentration effect on structural phenomena is detectable. The same model was then successfuly used for all cases, attributing two hydration shells to Zn2+ and one hydration shell to SO42+ . The reliability of the structural parameters obtained is discussed.
