Application


  • Effects induced by (6)-p-cymene ruthenium(II) complexes on Langmuir monolayers mimicking cancer and healthy cell membranes do not correlate with their toxicity.: This study investigates the interaction of ruthenium(II) complexes with Langmuir monolayers, including 1,2-Dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, highlighting differences in behavior between cancerous and healthy cell membrane models (Wrobel et al., 2024).

  • Cholesterol Changes Interfacial Water Alignment in Model Cell Membranes.: This study examines how cholesterol affects water alignment at the interface of model cell membranes that include 1,2-Dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, offering insights into membrane biophysics (Orlikowska-Rzeznik et al., 2024).

  • Impact of Lipid Composition on Vesicle Protein Adsorption: A BSA Case Study.: The impact of different lipid compositions, including 1,2-Dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, on the adsorption of bovine serum albumin to vesicles is studied to understand protein-lipid interactions (Amarandi et al., 2024).

  • Spatial Arrangement of the Drug Ibuprofen in a Model Membrane in the Presence of Lipid Rafts.: This paper investigates the arrangement of ibuprofen within model membranes containing lipid rafts and 1,2-Dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, shedding light on drug-membrane interactions (Kashnik et al., 2024).

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is based on the delivery of photocytotoxic agents to a target tissue, followed by irradiation. In order to increase the efficiency of PDT in oesophageal cancer therapy, polyethylene glycol (PEG)-grafted, transferrin (Tf)-conjugated liposome formulations of 5,10,15,20-tetra(m-hydroxyphenyl)chlorin (Foscan)

The G1 phase of the cell cycle is marked by the rapid turnover of phospholipids. This turnover is regulated by CTP:phosphocholine-cytidylyltransferase (CCT) and group VIA Ca(2+)-independent-phospholipase A(2) (iPLA(2)). We previously reported that inhibition of iPLA(2) arrests cells in G1 phase

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
