Abstract
In this chapter, the use of molecular dynamics (MD) simulations in the study of biomembranes under oxidative stress is critically addressed. We present case studies where the permeability of biomembranes to reactive oxygen species (ROS), the role of membrane proteins in the transport of ROS and photosensitizer-membrane ...
