[Defect structures of phospholipid lyotropic phases]

The relation between defect structures and peculiarities of relaxation processes at the formation of lyotropic phases in various phospholipid systems was studied. It is shown that both the structure faults and kinetics of textural transitions and cristallization depend on the saturation of fatty acid residues of lipids. It is established that the time range of lipid mesophases is increased while adding dimethylsulphoxid in all the systems studied.
