Abstract
Monolayers of poly(ethylene oxide)-bearing lipids and their mixed mono layers with dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine at the air-water interface was investigated using surface pressure measurements. The surface pres sure-area relationship revealed that the poly(ethylene oxide) moiety l ength significantly affected the interaction among the lipid molecules . This study provided a precise picture of the lipid membrane-water in terface.
