After the probe was added to the lipid it was equilibrated for I h above the phase transition temperature. |
When model membrane systems are prepared in the form of lipid dispersions, techniques other than MAS are often used. |
Optical microscopy was used to detect the presence of cholesterol crystals in the lipid dispersions. |
The lipid hydroperoxide thus formed will decompose into alkoxy radicals, aldehydes, alkenes, epoxides and alcohols. |
Substances that are confined to the lipid matrix will move along the plane of the bilayer. |
We would therefore postulate that individual lipid molecules in fusion intermediates would have canonical structure but increased dynamic motion. |
