摘要
Gemini surfactants from the homologous series of alkane-alpha,omega-diyl-bis(dodecyldimethylammonium bromide) (CnCS12, number of spacer carbons n = 2 - 12) and dioleoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DOPE) were used for cationic liposome (CL) preparation. CLs condense highly polymerized DNA creating complexes. Small-angle X-ray diffraction identified them as condensed lamellar phase L-alpha(C) in the studied range of molar ratios CnGS12/DOPE in the temperature range 20 - 60 degrees C. The DNA-DNA distance (d(DNA)) is studied in dependence to CnGS12 spacer length and membrane surface charge density. The high membrane surface charge densities (CnGS12/DOPE = 0.35 and 0.4 mol/mol) lead to the linear dependence of d(DNA) vs. n correlating with the interfacial area of the CnGS12 molecule.
