Ts. Dyubko et al., STUDY OF LOW-TEMPERATURE AND ORGANIC-SOLV ENTS EFFECT ON THE MODEL MEMBRANE-STRUCTURE BY FLUORESCENT-PROBES, Biofizika, 39(1), 1994, pp. 58-62
By means of the fluorescence probes pyrene, DSP-12 and n-terphenyl the
effect of low temperature, glycerol and 1,2-propylene glycole on the
structure of lecithin liposomes and proteoliposomes formed by lecithin
and cytochrome P-450 has been studied. Freezing-thawing and cryoprote
ctants were shown to modify surface area and internal volume of the li
pid bilayer.
