Distearoylphosphatidylcholine

Description:
Distearoylphosphatidylcholine (DSPC) is a phospholipid commonly used in biochemistry and pharmaceutical applications. It is characterized by its two long-chain saturated fatty acid tails, specifically stearic acid, which contribute to its structural stability and rigidity in membrane formation. DSPC has a hydrophilic head group, consisting of a choline moiety, which allows it to interact with aqueous environments, making it amphiphilic. This property is crucial for its role in forming lipid bilayers and liposomes, which are essential for drug delivery systems and membrane studies. DSPC exhibits a high phase transition temperature, indicating that it remains in a solid or gel state at physiological temperatures, which can influence the fluidity and permeability of membranes. Additionally, it is often utilized in the formulation of liposomes for targeted drug delivery, as it can encapsulate hydrophilic and hydrophobic compounds. Its stability and biocompatibility make it a valuable component in various biomedical applications, including vaccine development and gene therapy.
