Structural changes of phospholipid monolayers caused by coupling of human serum albumin: A GIXD study at the air/water interface
Article Abstract:
Phase behavior and structural changes were studied for phospholipid monolayers coupled with human serum albumin (HSA) at the air/buffer (pH3.8) interface by film balance and grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXD) measurements. For comparison, the lipid headgroup was varied from small ionic L-alpha-dipalmitoyl-phosphatidic acid (DPPA) to large ionic L-alpha-dipalmitoyl-phosphatidyl-L-serine (DPPS) and zwitterionic L-alpha-distearoyl-phosphatidylcholine (DSPC).

Stability and structures of liquid crystalline phases formed by branched-chain phospholipid diastereomers
Article Abstract:
The Diastereomers of 1-alkyl-2-acylglycerophosphocholines contaioning 2-methyl-branched fatty acids at the C2 position of the glycerol are synthesized. Pressure area isotherms and grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXD) measurements were employed for studying the physicochemical properties in monolayers at the air-water interface.
