Abstract

Stability and wetting properties changes of systems formed of phospholipid DPPC (1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) layers covering silica particles or glass slides due to the phospholipase A2 (PLA2) action were determined by zeta potential measurements and the surface free energy evaluation, respectively. The comparison of the zeta potential and surface free energy, which was evaluated from advancing and receding contact angles via applying models of interfacial interactions, i.e. van Oss et al. (LWAB) and contact angle hysteresis (CAH), was found to be helpful for better understanding the mechanism of PLA2 action on the lipid layers, what is discussed in the paper.
