In a previous work, Muruganathan and Fischer observed laser-induced local collapse of a methyl stearate monolayer. These experiments opened the possibility of studying the collapse mechanism in a highly controlled manner, since the laser intensity can be easily varied and

Fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs) are generated by the nonoxidative metabolism of alcohol and correlate positively with blood alcohol levels (BAL). As FAEEs are produced predominantly in the liver and bind to albumin in plasma, blood FAEE concentrations may be

Fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEE) are nonoxidative ethanol metabolites that have been shown to be long term markers of ethanol intake and have been implicated as mediators of ethanol-induced cell injury. Previous studies have indicated that the fatty acid composition
