✦ Synopsis


Phosphatidyl glycerol has been isolated and characterized from the pulmonary surfactant lipids of Beagle dogs. The techniques included: (a) Isolation of individual phospholipids by preparative thin-layer chromatography (TLC); (b) Acidic, basic and two-dimensional TLC of intact phospholipids; (c) Identification of certain functional groups by color reactions; (d) Enzymatic and methanolic-alkaline hydrolysis of intact phosphatides; (e) TLC separation and identification of hydrolyzate products; (f) Quantitative chemical analyses of glycerol and phosphorus; (g) TLC of derivatives of both lipids and polar headgroups; and (h) Infrared spectral analysis of glycerylphosphorylglycerol and other glycerylphosphorylesters.

Phosphatidyl glycerol accounts for 10 ~ of the surfactant phospholipid phosphorus and was at least as surface active as surfactant lecithin.

Monolayers of adsorbed pulmonary surfactant collapse under compression and respread to the interface when the area expands. These mechanisms contribute to the large area hysteresis seen experimentally in a pulsating bubble surfactometer. This paper presents an analytical model which adds monolayer c
