Not available outside of the UK & Ireland.

Application

20:1 (Cis) PC (1,2-dieicosenoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) has been used in liposome preparation. It may be used as an internal standard for mass spectrometric analyses and also used in planar bilayer lipid membranes (BLMs) to study its effect on the dependence of single-channel properties of C-terminal colicin peptide (P178).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylcholine (PC) is involved in the fusion and transport of membranes.
