Spectroscopic and permeation studies of phospholipid bilayers supported by a soft hydrogel scaffold
Polarized attenuated total reflection infrared (ATR-IR) spectroscopy, fluorescence microscopy, and fluorescence spectroscopy were used to characterize a lipid coating composed of 70 mol % 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DMPC) and 30 mol % cholesterol, supported on a spherical hydrogel s...

Zusammenfassung: | Polarized attenuated total reflection infrared (ATR-IR) spectroscopy, fluorescence microscopy, and fluorescence spectroscopy were used to characterize a lipid coating composed of 70 mol % 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DMPC) and 30 mol % cholesterol, supported on a spherical hydrogel scaffold. The fluorescence microscopy images show an association between the lipid coating and the hydrogel scaffold. Fluorescence permeability measurements revealed that the phospholipid coating acts as a permeability barrier, exhibiting characteristics of a lamellar bilayer coating structure. Variable evanescent wave penetration depth ATR-IR spectroscopy studies validated the determination of quantitative molecular orientation information for a lipid coating supported on a spherical scaffold. These polarized ATR-IR studies measured an average DMPC acyl chain tilt angle of ∼21-25°, with respect to the surface normal |
