Lipid exchange promotes fusion of model protocells [PDF]
arXiv, 2023 Vesicle fusion is an important process underlying cell division, transport, and membrane trafficking. In phospholipid systems, a range of fusogens including divalent cations and depletants have been shown to induce adhesion, hemifusion, and then full content fusion between vesicles.

Sensitive methods for estimating the anchoring strength of nematic liquid crystals on Langmuir-Blodgett monolayers of fatty acids [PDF]
, 2000 The anchoring of the nematic liquid crystal N-(p-methoxybenzylidene)-p-butylaniline (MBBA) on Langmuir-Blodgett monolayers of fatty acids (COOHC$_{n}$H$_{2n+1}$) was studied as a function of the length of the fatty acid alkyl chains, $n$ ($n = 15, 17, 19, 21$).

Self-Assembled Fatty Acid Crystalline Coatings Display Non-Toxic Superhydrophobic Antimicrobial Properties [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Superhydrophobcity is a well-known wetting phenomenon found in numerous plants and insects. It is achieved by the combination of the surfaces chemical properties and its surface roughness. Inspired by nature, numerous synthetic superhydrophobic surfaces have been developed for various applications.

6-O-glucose palmitate synthesis with lipase: Investigation of some key parameters [PDF]
Journal of Molecular Catalysis, Elsevier, 2018, 460, pp.63 - 68, 2019 Fatty acid sugar esters represent an important class of non-ionic bio-based surfactants. They can be synthesized from vinyl fatty acids and sugars with enzyme as a catalyst. Herein, the influence of the solvent, the lipase and the temperature on a model reaction between vinyl palmitate and glucose via enzymatic catalysis has been investigated and the ...

Fatty Acid Composition of Feces and Fecaliths.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1960 SummaryThe relative proportions of palmitic, stearic, oleic, and linoleic acids in lipids extracted from fecaliths and feces are compared by means of gas-liquid chromatography. Fecaliths, in contrast to feces, contain little oleic acid and no apparent linoleic acid.

Fatty acids composition in Pistachio
BIO Web of ConferencesPistachio (Pistacia vera L.), is an important food source for human health. It has nutritional content rich in protein, fat, fatty acids, fiber, vitamins and minerals. Such as other nuts, pistachio oil is rich in unsaturated fatty acids. Pistachio is rich in omega fatty acids such as n-3, n-6, n-9, it is known to be beneficial in decreasing cholesterol

Analysis of Fatty Acid Content and Composition in Microalgae [PDF]
Journal of Visualized Experiments, 2013 A method to determine the content and composition of total fatty acids present in microalgae is described. Fatty acids are a major constituent of microalgal biomass. These fatty acids can be present in different acyl-lipid classes. Especially the fatty acids present in triacylglycerol (TAG) are of commercial interest, because they can be used for ...
