Preparation of model membrane system containing ceramide 6 and their membrane characteristics

In this study, the formation of liposomes containing ceramide and their liposomal membrane characteristics were investigated. Liposomes composed of Ceramide 6 and 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) were examined by varying the amount of ceramide 6 present. The effects of Ceramide 6...
