Fatty acid flip-flop and proton transport determined by short-circuit current in planar bilayers
The effect of palmitic acid (PA) and oleic acid (OA) on electrical parameters of planar membranes was studied. We found a substantial difference between the effects of PA and OA on proton transfer. PA induced a small increase in conductance, requiring a new technique for estimating proton-mediated c...
