Lecture 14 Membranes continued Diffusion Membrane transport
Lipid Bilayers are dynamic distributions of phosphate and carbonyl groups and lateral pressure profiles From S. Feller
Distribution of groups along the z-axis from S. White
Electrostatic potential Dipole Potential Electric Double Layer (EDL)
Lipids at air-water interface s = 70 dyne/cm compressed monolayer surface pressure surface pressure of the crowding surfactant balances part of the surface tension, thus the apparent surface tension to the left of the barrier is smaller
dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC) monolayer-bilyer equivalence pressure 35-40 dyn/cm Irving Langmuir psurf sw -surface tension of pure water sw- ssurf = psurf ssurf- surface tension in the presence of surfactant psurf – surface pressure of the surfactant psurf
