Influence of a hydrophilic spacer on the structure of a phospholipid monolayer
journal contribution
posted on 2023-06-08, 18:28 authored by B Struth, Enrico Scalas, G Brezesinski, H Möhwald, F Bringezu, W G Bouwman, K KjaerWe present the results of thermodynamical and X-ray grazing incidence diffraction experiments performed on Langmuir monolayers of ether lipids with hydrophilic spacers between the glycerol backbone and the phosphatidylcholine head group: DHPC, DH-E01-PC, and DH-E02-PC. As a spacer the oxy-ethylene group is used, which is a typical hydrophilic unit of non-ionic tensides. It turns out that the introduction of the hydrophilic spacers leads to a fluidization of the monolayer and reduces the tilt angle of the chains.
