The Equilibria of Diosgenin–Phosphatidylcholine and Diosgenin–Cholesterol in Monolayers at the Air/Water Interface [PDF]
The Journal of Membrane Biology, 2016 Diosgenin (Dio) has shown many treatment properties, but the most important property is cytotoxic activity in cancer cells. In this study, we investigated monolayers of Dio, cholesterol (Ch), and phosphatidylcholine (PC) at the air/water interface. The measurements were carried with a Langmuir Teflon trough and a Nima 9000 tensiometer program.
