X-Ray Studies on Phospholipid Bilayers. V. Interactions with DDT

Abstract The possible interaction of DDT with the lipids dimyristoyl lecithin (DML), dipalmitoylphos-phatidylethanolamine (DPPE) and tripalmitin (TP) was studied. The work was carried out on oriented films and crystalline powders of DDT-lipid mixtures at different molar ratios by X-ray diffraction t...

Description
Summary:Abstract The possible interaction of DDT with the lipids dimyristoyl lecithin (DML), dipalmitoylphos-phatidylethanolamine (DPPE) and tripalmitin (TP) was studied. The work was carried out on oriented films and crystalline powders of DDT-lipid mixtures at different molar ratios by X-ray diffraction techniques. The diagrams showed only the patterns of pure DDT and that of the corresponding lipid. It is concluded that new phases were not formed and, therefore, no interactions occurred.
