Abstract
The aqueous suspensions of the mixtures of a phosphatidylcholine (1,2-Bis[(2E,4E)-2,4-octadecadienoyl]-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (1b) and 1,2-dioctadecanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (1a)) with a fatty acid ((2E,4E)-2,4-octadecadienoic acid and octadecanoic acid), having a diene chromophore were analyzed by DSC and UV measurements. The phase transition was dependent on the composition of the lipid mixtures. The UV spectral change of the diene chromophore of a fatty acid for the 1a mixtures corresponded well with the phase transition determined by DSC analyses, but not for the 1b mixtures.
