Abstract

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was used for the study of two-component lipid membranes. Phosphatidylserine and ceramide were to be investigated because they play an important biochemical role in cell membranes. The research on biolipid interaction was focused on a quantitative description of processes that take part in a bilayer. Assumed models of interaction between amphiphilic molecules and the equilibria that take place there were described by mathematical equations for the studied system. The possibility of complex formation for a two-component system forming bilayers was assumed, which could explain the deviation from the additivity rule. The molecular area and the equilibrium constant of the complex were determined.
