Abstract

The interaction between opiate molecules and phosphatidylserine (PS) or phosphatidylcholine (PC) has been studied on compression isotherms and penetration kinetics. Phosphatidylcholine-opiate interactions are weak and similar in magnitude for all opiate molecules. On contrary, PS and PS/PC interact strongly and differently with opiate molecules. The differences in penetration are not directly related to the pKa or hydrophobicity of the molecules.
