It is shown that the fluctuation spectrum of the lipid bilayer conductance induced by one-sided application of polyene antibiotics has a profound l/f component with a magnitude being proportional to the single-channel conductance. The observed component is thought to be caused by the channel mobility increasing at one-sided polyene application in a comparison with two-sided application where a Lorentzian spectrum of fluctuations was found earlier.
