16:0-18:0 (11-12BR) PC (1-palmitoyl-2-(11,12-dibromo) stearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) may be used:

• in phospholipid vesicle preparation for tryptophan (Trp) penetration depth experiments
• to determine the bromination effect at different positions along the fatty acid chains
• for quenching of human heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70) tryptophan (Trp) fluorescence

16:0-18:0 (11-12BR) PC (1-palmitoyl-2-(11,12-dibromo) stearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) consists of brominated stearoyl chains. This brominated-PC lipid is non-hygroscopic and has a stability of 1 year.

16:0-18:0 (11-12BR) PC (1-palmitoyl-2-(11,12-dibromo) stearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) can be used to prepare large unilamellar vesicles.
