L-α-phosphatidylethanolaMine, transphosphatidylated (Egg, Chicken)

Uses

Egg Trans PE is suitable for use:

• in the preparation of zwitterionic liposome for binding assay
• as a component in optimized theranostic nanoemulsion (NE) formulations
• in the preparation of large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs) for detecting the leakage of intraliposomal carboxyfluorescein caused by anthraquinones

Biological Activity

Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) along with other phospholipids forms the backbone of biological membranes. PE is known to regulate autophagy. The autophagic membranes possesses PE with high degree of unsaturation. Egg yolk PE has high radical scavenging activity owing to antioxidant potential.
