Fold-speed control in collapsing mixed phospholipid monolayers
Article Abstract:
A fast charge-coupled device (CCD) camera fixed to a Brewster angle microscope (BAM) is used to show that morphologies of irreversible folds propagating through binary L-alpha-dipalmitoylphosphatidyl-choline (DPPC)/1,2-dipalmitoyl-Sn-glycero-3-[phosphor-L-serine] (sodium salt) (DPPS) mixtures. The fold propagation speeds are measured to obtain information on the collapse behavior, texture and dynamics.

On the nature of conformational transition in poly(ethylene glycol) chains grafted onto phospholipid monolayers
Article Abstract:
The conformation of poly(ethylene glycol) chains with molecular mass 5000 (PEG5000) grafted onto phospholipid monolayers at the air/water interface is highlighted. Conformational changes in PEG5000 chains grafted onto the phospholipid monolayer are therefore described as a transition from a highly hydrated pancake to a poorly hydrated brush conformation.

Nanoscale topographic instabilities of a phospholipid monolayer
Article Abstract:
Light scattering microscopy reveals previously undetected topographic instabilities in phospholipid monolayers at the air/water interface far below the collapse pressure. It was found that the nanoscale topographic instabilities occur over a wide surface pressure range spanning the pressures.
