Abstract
Double-tailed glycolipids derived from mono-, di- and tri-O-galactosyl tris-(hydroxymethyl) aminomethane and aspartic acid have been synthes ized. Preliminary assessment by negative staining transmission electro n microscopy of dispersions of these amphiphiles showed the formation of either vesicles, helical structures or fibers depending on the glyc olipid structure.
