From S. Feller Lipid Bilayers are dynamic distributions of phosphate and carbonyl groups and lateral pressure profiles
3
from S. White Distribution of groups along the z-axis
4
Electrostatic potential Electric Double Layer (EDL) Dipole Potential
5
surface pressure = 70 dyne/cm compressed monolayer surface pressure of the crowding surfactant balances part of the surface tension, thus the apparent surface tension to the left of the barrier is smaller Lipids at air-water interface
6
Irving Langmuir w - surf = surf surf w - surface tension of pure water surf - surface tension in the presence of surfactant surf surf – surface pressure of the surfactant dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC) monolayer-bilyer equivalence pressure 35-40 dyn/cm
7
Schematics for measuring surface potentials in lipid monolayers

Diffusion is a result of random motion which simply maximizes entropy Einstein treatment: c1c1 c2c2 ll but C distance negative slope therefore: but (Fick’s law) (one dimension)
