Abstract:Liposomal dispersions in water were used as a tool to study photo‐oxidation of chlorophyll‐a and photo‐oxidation of unsaturated lipids at 1 or 4°C. The presence of monogalactosyl diglyceride stimulated chlorophyll‐a degradation. In addition the level of linolenic acid was decreased in liposomal dispersions containing chlorophyll‐a, dipalmitoyl phosphatidyl choline, and monogalactosyl diglyceride, indicating that monogalactosyl diglyceride and chlorophyll‐a were coupled in the preparations. In liposomal dispers… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
