Categorization | Chain length | Properties |
---|---|---|
Ultra/very short chain | <16 C | Disturb lamellar structure [58] |
Short chain | 16–20 C | About symmetric chain lengths |
Long chain | 21–32 C | Asymmetric chain lengths |
Ultra/very long chain | >32 C | As long as/longer than SPP bilayer |
LM, lipid matrix; SPP, short periodicity phase.
