Aggregation of a peptide antibiotic alamethicin at the air-water interface and its influence on the viscoelasticity of phospholipid monolayers

The aggregation properties of an antibiotic membrane-active peptide alamethicin at the air-water interface have been studied using interfacial rheology and fluorescence microscopy techniques. Fluorescence microscopy of alamethicin monolayers revealed a coexistence of liquid expanded (LE) and solid p...
