Mixed micelles of the phospholipid dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and bile salts of sodium deoxycholate (NaDC) were investigated by a combination of techniques, including time-resolved fluorescence quenching (TRFQ), electron spin resonance (ESR . . .

Mixed micelles of solubilized dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) and the zwitterionic detergent dodecyldimethylammoniopropane sulfonate are characterized employing time-resolved fluorescence quenching (TRFQ), electron spin resonance (ESR), and sur . . .

Phospholipases are interfacial enzymes that catalyze hydrolysis of lipids in membranes. Their activity is significantly higher at the surface of lipid aggregates than on monomeric substrates. Enzymatic activity occurs in three sequential steps of 1. e . . .

Mixed micelles of the phospholipid 1,2-diheptanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DHPC) with sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) or dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) in aqueous solutions and the effects of interactions between the components were studied . . .

Activity at micellar interfaces of bacterial phospholipase C from Bacillus cereus on phospholipids solubilized in micelles was investigated with the goal of elucidating the role of the interface microstructure and developing further an existing kineti . . .

Distributions of lysopalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (LPPC), palmitic acid (PA) and their 1:1 mixtures between water and dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) bilayer were determined using a fluorescence probe that selectively detects only the solutes in . . .

Mixed micelles of l,2-diheptanoyl-sn-grycero-3-phosphocholine (DHPC) with ionic detergents were prepared to develop well characterized substrates for the study of lipolytic enzymes. The aggregates that formed on mixing DHPC with the anionic surfactant . . .

Sodium salts of maleamic acid derivatives of lauryl ester of tyrosine (MTNa) and phenyl alanine (MPNa) in water exhibited strong pH-responsive behaviors of viscosity and specific conductivity that originate from the concentration and pH dependence of . . .

Lauryl esters of L-tyrosine (LET) and L-phenylalanine (LEP) were, in a previous interface adsorption study, found to adopt very different interfacial conformations. The present study is an investigation of their aqueous aggregation properties with the . . .

Aggregation states of mixtures of the oxidized phospholipid (OxPL), 1-palmitoyl-2-glutaryl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (PGPC) and 1,2-Dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC), and 1,2-Dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DOPC), were characteriz . . .
