General description

Phosphatidylcholines (PCs) are phospholipids, that are abundantly present in the tissues of the animal. 16:0-18:0 PC (PSPC/1-palmitoyl-2-stearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) is a saturated lipid , which consists of two additional methylene units in the sn-2 acyl chain.

Application

16:0-18:0 PC (1-palmitoyl-2-stearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) has been used in liposome preparation. It may be used as a phospholipid standard.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylcholines (PCs) play a functional role in reducing the level of blood lipid and cholesterol.

We attempted to evaluate the affinity of the anionic phospholipids to cytochrome c by means of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technique and to correlate it with the cytochrome c active site alterations and peroxidase activity. Our experiments showed a strong

Common organic matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) matrices, 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid, 3,5-dimethoxy-4-hydroxycinnamic acid, and alpha-cyano-4-hydroxycinnamic acid, were found to undergo sublimation without decomposition under conditions of reduced pressure and elevated temperature. This solid to vapor-phase transition was exploited to apply MALDI matrix

Phosphatidylcholines are the major phospholipid component of most eukaryotic cell membranes. Phosphatidylcholines have been shown to actively participate in regulatory and metabolic processes. Dysfunctional metabolic processes have been linked to human disease and can result in altered phosphatidylcholine structural features

Phosphatidylcholine (PC), the major source of dietary choline, has been demonstrated to improve the capability of learning and memory in rodent and the amelioration of long-chain n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) on anti-aging and anti-oxidation is widely known as well.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
