Beschreibung

1,2-O-Dioctadecyl-rac-glycerol is a lipid that belongs to the class of synthetic lipids. It has been used as a model system for studying the interactions between phosphatidylcholine (PC) and other lipids. The systematic study of the morphology of 1,2-O-dioctadecyl-rac-glycerol in various solvents revealed that it is an amphiphile with an elongated shape. This molecule interacts with PC membranes in a specific manner, which can be detected using optical measurements. The transition from the solid to liquid state causes 1,2-O-dioctadecyl-rac-glycerol to change its shape from a rod to an ellipsoid. This property can be used as a diagnostic tool for identifying transitions in nanomaterials.
