Phase diagram of a ternary mixture of cholesterol and saturated and unsaturated lipids calculated from a microscopic model
R. Elliott, I. Szleifer, M. Schick
We employ a molecular model to study a ternary mixture of saturated lipid, with tails of sixteen carbons, a mono unsaturated lipid with tails of eighteen carbons, and cholesterol.…

Phase Separation of Saturated and Mono-unsaturated Lipids as determined from a Microscopic Model
R. Elliott, K. Katsov, M. Schick +1
A molecular model is proposed of a bilayer consisting of fully saturated DPPC and mono unsaturated DOPC. The model not only encompasses the constant density within the hydrophobic…
