Usage

Description

1,2-Dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-rac-(1-glycerol) SodiuM Salt, also known as DMPG, is a phospholipid molecule that consists of a phosphate polar head connected to two non-polar lipid tails (myristic acid) by a glycerol molecule. This amphiphilic nature allows the molecule to spontaneously form lipid bilayers in an aqueous environment, making it a versatile component in the creation of various artificial membrane structures.
