Abstract |
Spin label hyperfine splittings in mixtures of protic and aprotic solvents are used to obtain association constants K(A,h) for hydrogen bonding to oxazolidine nitroxides. With the Onsager approach to account for the variation in local dielectric constant, these results are used to determine the effective penetration profile of water into fluid phospholipid membranes, from recent electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) studies on phospholipids spin-labelled systematically down the sn-2 chain. Water penetration is appreciable, depends on chain unsaturation, and is strongly affected by cholesterol. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 17 March 2024.
All research outputs
#8,759,452
of 25,837,817 outputs
Outputs from European Biophysics Journal
#123
of 535 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#34,254
of 138,101 outputs
Outputs of similar age from European Biophysics Journal
#1
of 1 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,837,817 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 535 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 3.2. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 138,101 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 16th percentile – i.e., 16% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 1 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
