Phosphoglycerols DPPG Na
1,2-Dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-PG sodium salt or DPPG Na or 1,2-Dihexadecanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylglycerol or 1,2-Dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-(1'-rac-glycerol) or 1,2-Dihexadecanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoglycerol.
1,2-Dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-PG (sodium salt) or DPPG Na or 1,2-Dihexadecanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylglycerol is a phospholipid containing the long-chain (16:0) palmitic acid inserted at the sn-1 and sn-2 positions. It can be used in the generation of micelles, liposomes, and other types of artificial membranes. 1,2-Dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-rac-(1-glycerol) forms lipid bilayers. In the high temperature phase, the conformation of the chains is liquid-like. In the low temperature phases, the chains are stiff and parallel and they interdigitate. 1,2-Dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylglycerol is a phosphatidylglycerol with palmitic acid. Phosphatidylglycerol is a phospholipid found in pulmonary surfactant. It can be used in lipid-based drug delivery studies.
