Description
1,2-Dipalmitoyl-
13C-
sn-glycero-3-PC is intended for use as an internal standard for the quantification of 1,2-dipalmitoyl-
sn-glycero-3-PC by GC- or LC-MS. 1,2-Dipalmitoyl-
sn-glycero-3-PC (DPPC) is a zwitterionic glycerophospholipid commonly used in the formation of lipid monolayers, bilayers, and liposomes for use in a variety of applications.
1,2,3,4 It has been used in the formation of proteoliposomes for implantation of γ-glutamyl transpeptidase into human erythrocyte membranes.
3 Incorporation of glycosphingolipid antigens into DPPC-containing liposomes increases the immunogenicity of the antigens in mice.
