Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
1-palmitoyl-2-stearoyl-(16-doxyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (16:0-16 Doxyl PC) may be used:
- in bilayers or membranes to study the distribution of the lipid-attached doxyl electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spin label
- as spin-labelled lipid in multilamellar vesicles (MLVs) to measure membrane fluidity
- as a spin-labeled deep quencher in small unilamellar vesicles (SUVs) for nitroxide lipid quenching experiments
| [Biological Activity]
Phosphatidylcholine (PC) functions as a surfactant within the mucus to form a hydrophobic surface to inhibit bacterial penetrance. It is used to tre at f at embolism. Phosphatidylcholine lowers the levels of cholesterol and triglycerides. |
