The surface potential of adsorbed monolayers of cholesteryl-pullulan (CHP) derivatives has been determined by the ionizing differential electrode method. It has been found that this potential is highly dependent on the degree of cholesterol grafted onto pullulan, and that the native polysaccharide displays neither surface activity nor surface potential. As the disordered structure of the non-ionic polysaccharide unit generates a random orientation of intrinsic dipole moments, it has been considered that its contribution to the measured surface potential is rather small, compared to the cholesteryl group dipolar contribution. The surface densities of cholesteryl groups of adsorbed CHP molecules have been determined from the relationship between the surface potential and the surface density of spread cholesterol molecules. The assessment of these quantities was essential, as the determination of the surface tension data for the CHP derivatives with low cholesteryl content (C[-IP45_o. 6 and CHPs0_0.9) was difficult to achieve (Part I of this work lB. Dem6, V. Rosilio and A. Baszkin, Colloids Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 4 (1995) 357]). These results complement those from the surface tension measurements, and confirm that in the surface layer of the adsorbed polysaccharide the ordered cholesteryl groups are oriented towards the air phase and the disordered polysaccharide is immersed in the aqueous subphase. Proposed models for semi-organized adsorbed CHP layers are discussed.
