Abstract
Abstract The phospholipid–water mixtures are used as model systems to investigate the structure and function of biological membranes. The dielectric behaviour of DPPC–water and DPPE–water systems was explored at audio (≥ 2kHz) and microwave (10 GHz) frequencies versus temperature. Particular care was devoted to the pretransition below the main gel-liquid-crystalline phase transition. A possible interpretation of the pretransition mechanism is given in terms of capillary waves.
