Table 1.

Effect of sorbic acid or decanoic acid on the 2H maximal quadrupolar splittings (in kHz) of DMPC-d54 bilayers measured using static 2H solid-state NMR experiments at 35 °C

DMPC DMPC + 5%sorbic acid DMPC + 10%sorbic acid DMPC + 5%decanoic acid DMPC + 10%decanoic acid
pH 3.0 24.0 24.4 (+1.7%) 24.8 (+3.3%)
pH 4.4 24.2 24.5 (+1.2%) 24.9 (+2.9%) 27.7 (+14.5%) 29.6 (+22.3%)
pH 6.0 24.7 24.9 (+0.8%) 25.0 (+1.2%)
pH 7.4 24.9 24.9 24.9 26.2 (+5.2%) 27.6 (+10.8%)

The values in parenthesis are the calculated percentage of increases of quadrupolar splittings upon addition of sorbic acid or decanoic acid.
