Phosphatidylcholine (PC), a strong bilayer-forming lipid is the most common phospholipid in mammalian membranes. Several prokaryotic and eukaryotic pathogens has phosphorylcholine as its structural constituent.
Avanti′s nitroxide spin product listing is a group of compounds designed to act as membrane probes. A variety of positions down the hydrophobic chain are labeled with the nitroxide functional groups to allow probing the membrane at various depths. These compounds have been synthesized from 1-palmitoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycerol-3-phosphocholine with the product being purified by column chromatography. Various n-doxyl phosphocholines have been recently used as biophysical tools to elucidate membrane trafficking with phosphatidylinositol transfer proteins and as fluorescent quenchers in lipid bilayer structural studies.

Phosphorylcholine (PC) possesses immunomodulatory properties.

Product use: To prevent aggregation, prepare water-based solutions of 2 mM stock solutions of n-DOXYL PCs and store in plastic. Dilute stock solutions to 0.03- 0.1 mM solutions for EPR studies. For liposome preparations in fluorescent quenching measurements, dissolve the doxyl lipid in 150 μl absolute ethanol for a concentration of 40.3 mM , Additional supplemental information.
