Application

20:0 PC has been used in collision cross section (CCS) calibration mixture for lipid identification.It may be used:as a component in giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) for a two-photon fluorescence microscopy study to prepare small unilamellar vesicles (SUVs) to study the effect of hydrophobic mismatch on gramicidin conformation and organizationas a component in giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs) to study its interaction with Crotalus atrox-secreted phospholipase A2 (sPLA2)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylcholine (PC) may participate in the signaling of neuronal differentiation. It can serve as a surfactant to block the penetrance of bacteria by generating a hydrophobic surface.

General description

The list of Phosphatidylcholine products offered by Avanti is designed to provide compounds having a variety of physical properties. Products available include short chain (C3-C8 are water soluble and hygroscopic), saturated, multi-unsaturated and mixed acid PC′s. All of the products are purified by HPLC, and special precautions are taken to protect the products for oxidization and hydrolysis.

The mucosal layer of the colon has phosphatidylcholine (PC) as a vital constituent.
