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 . . .

The fluidity of the plasma membrane of Sarcoma 180 mouse ascites tumor cells has been studied in viable cells using fatty acid spin labels. The order parameter was found to vary from 0.61, approximately four carbon bond lengths removed from the membra . . .
