Cof DSPC lowers to À22
C of DOPC (Fig. 4.7). In thermotropic
induction of phase transition, structural parameter of each phase is shown in representative phospholipid, 1,2-palmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC)
(Table 4.1).
Fig. 4.7 Structure and phase transition temperature of various phospholipids
Schematic images of various phospholipids are shown with their main phase transition temperatures. There are differences of polar head, length of fatty acyl chain and unsaturated bonds
among them
