| Abstract | Surface chemical properties of a phospholipid, dilauroylphosphatidylcholine (DLPC), in two ionic liquids (ILs), 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate (bmimBF(4)) and hexafluorophosphate (bmimPF(6)), were investigated by means of surface tension, dynamic light-scattering, and freeze-fracture transmission electron microscopy. It was found that DLPC shows finite solubility in the ILs and spontaneously forms vesicles with size distribution around 400 nm in diameter above the critical vesicular concentration (CVC) of 0.040 wt.% (in bmimBF(4)) and approx. 0.08 wt.% (in bmimPF(6)). Other than the CVC value, anion specificity of the ILs was also seen in the temperature effect on the vesicular aggregation; that is, a temperature-induced reversible aggregation was observed in bmimPF(6), but not in bmimBF(4). The differences in the vesicular stability against the temperature-induced aggregation could be attributed to differences in the interaction between anion species of the ILs and zwitterionic phosphatidylcholine head groups. The apparent molecular area occupied by DLPC at the air/solution interface was estimated to be 0.37 nm(2) in bmimBF(4) and 0.20 nm(2) in bmimPF(6) by applying the Gibbs adsorption equation. These values are much smaller than the molecular area of 0.69 nm(2) reported for the hydrated DLPC bilayer of lamellar liquid-crystalline phase. This result is not consistent with the traditional Gibbs adsorption model, but can be interpreted in terms of a picture for the surface adsorption of soluble amphiphiles proposed by Moroi et al. Differential scanning calorimetric study is also reported regarding the phase transition behavior of DLPC bilayer solvated by the ILs. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
