Abstract
Interactions between the sigma1 receptor agonist PRE-084 and various lipid monolayers, including dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC), DPP-ethanolamine (DPPE), DPP-glycerol (DPPG), DPP-serine (DPPS), palmitoylsphingomyelin (PSM), and cholesterol (Ch), were investigated to elucidate the effects of PRE-084 on membrane fluidity and stability. Their interactions with sigma1 receptor agonists have potential implications for neuroprotection, antidepressant, analgesic, and cognitive enhancement effects. In this study, we observed that the presence of PRE-084 in the subphase led to increased fluidity in DPPC and DPPE monolayers, whereas decreasing fluidity was observed in DPPG, DPPS, and PSM monolayers. The interaction of PRE-084 with Ch monolayers was found to be distinct from its interaction with other lipids. Fluorescence microscopy images revealed changes in the size and shape of liquid-condensed domains in the presence of PRE-084, supporting the notion of altered membrane fluidity. Our findings provide new insights into the interaction of PRE-084 with lipid monolayers and its potential implications for biological and membrane science.

Kundu A, Yamaguchi S, Tahara T. Local pH at Nonionic and Zwitterionic Lipid/Water Interfaces Revealed by Heterodyne-Detected Electronic Sum-Frequency Generation: A Unified View to Predict Interfacial pH of Biomembranes. J Phys Chem B 2023; 127:5445-5452.

Abstract
For biomembranes, which are composed of neutral as well as charged lipids, the local pH at lipid/water interfaces is extremely important in their structural formation and functional activity. In our previous study of the charged lipid/water interfaces, we found that the local pH at the interface is governed by the positive or negative sign of the charge of the lipid: i.e., the local pH is dictated by the repulsive or attractive electrostatic interaction between the charged lipid headgroup and the proton. Because of the lack of net charge in the headgroup of the neutral lipid, the factor determining the local pH at neutral lipid/water interfaces is less straightforward, and therefore it is more challenging to predict the local pH. Here we apply heterodyne-detected electronic sum frequency generation (HD-ESFG) spectroscopy to nonionic and zwitterionic lipids to investigate the local pH at the neutral lipid/water interfaces. The obtained results indicate that the local pH at the nonionic lipid/water interface is higher than in bulk water by 0.8 whereas the local pH at the zwitterionic lipid/water interface is lower by 0.6, although the latter is subject to significant uncertainty. The present HD-ESFG study on neutral lipids, combined with the previous study on charged lipids, presents a unified view to consider the local pH at biomembranes based on the balance between the electrostatic interaction and the hydrophobicity provided by the lipid.

Abstract
Interfacial reactions drive all elemental cycling on Earth and play pivotal roles in human activities such as agriculture, water purification, energy production and storage, environmental contaminant remediation, and nuclear waste repository management. The onset of the 21st century marked the beginning of a more detailed understanding of mineral aqueous interfaces enabled by advances in techniques that use tunable high-flux focused ultrafast laser and X-ray sources to provide near-atomic measurement resolution, as well as by nanofabrication approaches that enable transmission electron microscopy in a liquid cell. This leap into atomic- and nanometer-scale measurements has uncovered scale-dependent phenomena whose reaction thermodynamics, kinetics, and pathways deviate from previous observations made on larger systems. A second key advance is new experimental evidence for what scientists hypothesized but could not test previously, namely, interfacial chemical reactions are frequently driven by "anomalies" or "non-idealities" such as defects, nanoconfinement, and other nontypical chemical structures. Third, progress in computational chemistry has yielded new insights that allow a move beyond simple schematics, leading to a molecular model of these complex interfaces. In combination with surface-sensitive measurements, we have gained knowledge of the interfacial structure and dynamics, including the underlying solid surface and the immediately adjacent water and aqueous ions, enabling a better definition of what constitutes the oxide- and silicate-water interfaces. This critical review discusses how science progresses from understanding ideal solid-water interfaces to more realistic systems, focusing on accomplishments in the last 20 years and identifying challenges and future opportunities for the community to address. We anticipate that the next 20 years will focus on understanding and predicting dynamic transient and reactive structures over greater spatial and temporal ranges as well as systems of greater structural and chemical complexity. Closer collaborations of theoretical and experimental experts across disciplines will continue to be critical to achieving this great aspiration.

Abstract
The interaction of several simple electrolytes with uncharged insoluble monolayers is studied on the basis of tensiometric and potentiometric data for the surface electrolyte solution|air. The induced adsorption of electrolyte on the monolayer is determined via a combination of data for equilibrium spreading pressure and surface pressure versus area isotherms. We show that the monolayer-induced adsorption of electrolyte is not only strongly ion-specific but also surfactant-specific. The comparison between the ion-specific effects on a carboxylic acid monolayer at low pH and an ester monolayer shows that the anion series follows the same order while the cation series reverses. The effect of the electrolyte on the chemical potential of the monolayer shows attraction between the surfactant and the ions at low monolayer densities, but at high surface densities, repulsion seems to come into play. In nearly all investigated cases, a maximum of monolayer-induced electrolyte adsorption is observed at intermediate monolayer densities. This suggests specific interactions between the surfactant headgroup and the ions. The Volta potential data for the monolayers are analyzed on the basis of the equations of quadrupolar electrostatics. The analysis suggests that the ion-specific effect on the Volta potential is due to the ion-specific decrement of the bulk dielectric constant of the electrolyte solution. Moreover, we present evidence that in most cases the effect of the electrolyte on the orientation of the adsorbed dipoles cannot be neglected. Instead, the change in the ion distribution in the electric double layer seems to have a small effect on the Volta potential.

Abstract
In the present study, the effects of magnesium ions on the conformational changes of the deuterated 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (D54-DMPE) monolayer were elucidated by frequency-resolved sum frequency generation vibrational spectroscopy (SFG-VS) and surface pressure-area isotherm measurements. It is found that the tilt angles of the methyl in tail groups decrease, while the tilt angles of the phosphate and methylene in head groups increase during the compression of the DMPE monolayers at both the air/water interface and the air/MgCl2 solution interfaces. It is also shown that the tilt angle of the methyl in the tail groups slightly decreases, while the tilt angles of the phosphate and methylene in the head groups significantly increase as the MgCl2 concentration increases from 0 to 1.0 M. These results indicate that both the tail groups and the head groups of the DMPE molecules become closer to the surface normal, as the MgCl2 concentration increases in the subphase.

Abstract
The electric double layer governs the processes of all charged surfaces in aqueous solutions; however, elucidating the structure of the water molecules is challenging for even the most advanced spectroscopic techniques. Here, we present the individual Stern layer and diffuse layer OH stretching spectra at the silica/water interface in the presence of NaCl over a wide pH range using a combination of vibrational sum frequency generation spectroscopy, heterodyned second harmonic generation, and streaming potential measurements. We find that the Stern layer water molecules and diffuse layer water molecules respond differently to pH changes: unlike the diffuse layer, whose water molecules remain net-oriented in one direction, water molecules in the Stern layer flip their net orientation as the solution pH is reduced from basic to acidic. We obtain an experimental estimate of the non-Gouy-Chapman (Stern) potential contribution to the total potential drop across the insulator/electrolyte interface and discuss it in the context of dipolar, quadrupolar, and higher order potential contributions that vary with the observed changes in the net orientation of water in the Stern layer. Our findings show that a purely Gouy-Chapman (Stern) view is insufficient to accurately describe the electrical double layer of aqueous interfaces.

Abstract
The surface of pulmonary alveolar subphase is covered with a mixture of lipids and proteins. This lung surfactant plays a crucial role in lung functioning. It shows a complex phase behavior which can be altered by the interaction with third molecules such as drugs or pollutants. For studying multicomponent biological systems, it is of interest to couple experimental approach with computational modelling yielding atomic-scale information. Simple two, three, or four-component model systems showed to be useful for getting more insight in the interaction between lipids, lipids and proteins or lipids and proteins with drugs and impurities. These systems were studied theoretically using molecular dynamic simulations and experimentally by means of the Langmuir technique. A better understanding of the structure and behavior of lung surfactants obtained from this research is relevant for developing new synthetic surfactants for efficient therapies, and may contribute to public health protection.

Abstract
In recent years, the underlying mechanism of formation of the lipid corona and its stability have begun to garner interest in the nanoscience community. However, until now, very little is known about the role of different properties of nanoparticles (NPs) (surface charge density, hydrophobicity, and size) in lipid corona formation. Apart from the physicochemical properties of NPs, the different properties of lipids remain elusive in lipid corona formation. In the present contribution, we have investigated the interaction of phenylalanine-functionalized gold NPs (Au-Phe NPs) with different zwitterionic lipid vesicles of different phase states (sol-gel and liquid crystalline at room temperature) as a function of lipid concentration. The main objective of the present work is to understand how the lipid phase affects lipid corona formation and lipid-induced aggregation in various media. Our results establish that the lipid phase state, area per lipid head group, and the buffer medium play important roles in lipid-induced aggregation. The lipid corona occurs for NPs at high lipid concentration, irrespective of the phase states and area per lipid head group of the lipid bilayer. Notably, the lipid corona also forms at a low concentration of lipid vesicles in the liquid crystalline phase (1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine). The corona formation brings in remarkable stability to NPs against freeze-thaw cycles. Based on the stability, for the first time, we classify lipid corona as "hard lipid corona" and "soft lipid corona". This distinct classification will help to develop suitable nanomaterials for various biomedical applications.

Abstract
Marine phytoplankton influence the composition of sea spray aerosols (SSAs) by releasing various compounds. The biogenic surfactant dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) is known to accumulate in the sea surface microlayer, but its aerosolization has never been confirmed. We conducted a 1 year SSA sampling campaign at the Belgian coast and analyzed the SSA composition. We quantified DPPC at a median and maximum air concentration of 7.1 and 33 pg m-3, respectively. This discovery may be of great importance for the field linking ocean processes to human health as DPPC is the major component of human lung surfactant and is used as excipient in medical aerosol therapy. The natural airborne exposure to DPPC seems too low to induce direct human health effects but may facilitate the effects of other marine bioactive compounds. By analyzing various environmental variables in relation to the DPPC air concentration, using a generalized linear model, we established that wave height is a key environmental predictor and that it has an inverse relationship. We also demonstrated that DPPC content in SSAs is positively correlated with enriched aerosolization of Mg2+ and Ca2+. In conclusion, our findings are not only important from a human health perspective but they also advance our understanding of the production and composition of SSAs.

Abstract
The temperature-dependent hydration structure of long-chain fatty acids and alcohols at air-water interfaces has great significance in the fundamental interactions underlying ice nucleation in the atmosphere. We present an integrated theoretical and experimental study of the temperature-dependent vibrational structure and electric field character of the immediate hydration shells of fatty alcohol and acid headgroups. We use a combination of surface-sensitive infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (IRRAS), surface potentiometry, and ab initio molecular dynamics simulations to elucidate detailed molecular structures of the octadecanoic acid and octadecanol (stearic acid and stearyl alcohol) headgroup hydration shells at room temperature and near freezing. In experiments, the alcohol at high surface concentration exhibits the largest surface potential; yet we observe a strengthening of the hydrogen-bonding for the solvating water molecules near freezing for both the alcohol and the fatty acid IRRAS experiments. Results reveal that the hydration shells for both compounds screen their polar headgroup dipole moments reducing the surface potential at low surface coverages; at higher surface coverage, the polar headgroups become dehydrated, which reduces the screening, correlating to higher observed surface potential values. Lowering the temperature promotes tighter chain packing and an increase in surface potential. IRRAS reveals that the intra- and intermolecular vibrational coupling mechanisms are highly sensitive to changes in temperature. We find that intramolecular coupling dominates the vibrational relaxation pathways for interfacial water determined by comparing the H2O and the HOD spectra. Using ab initio molecular dynamics (AIMD) calculations on cluster systems of propanol + 6H2O and propionic acid + 10H2O, a spectral decomposition scheme was used to correlate the OH stretching motion with the IRRAS spectral features, revealing the effects of intra- and intermolecular coupling on the spectra. Spectra calculated with AIMD reproduce the red shift and increase in intensity observed in experimental spectra corresponding to the OH stretching region of the first solvation shell. These findings suggest that intra- and intermolecular vibrational couplings strongly impact the OH stretching region at fatty acid and fatty alcohol water interfaces. Overall, results are consistent with ice templating behavior for both the fatty acid and the alcohol, yet the surface potential signature is strongest for the fatty alcohol. These findings develop a better understanding of the complex surface potential and spectral signatures involved in ice templating.

Abstract
The second-order nonlinear susceptibility, χ(2), in the Stern layer and the total interfacial potential drop, Φ(0)tot, across the oxide:water interface are estimated from SHG amplitude and phase measurements for divalent cations (Mg2+, Ca2+, Sr2+, and Ba2+) at the silica:water interface at pH 5.8 and various ionic strengths. We find that interfacial structure and total potential depend strongly on ion valency. We observe statistically significant differences between the experimentally determined χ(2) value for NaCl and that of the alkali earth series but smaller differences between ions of the same valency in that series. These differences are particularly pronounced at intermediate salt concentrations, which we attribute to the influence of hydration structure in the Stern layer. Furthermore, we corroborate the differences by examining the effects of anion substitution (SO42- for Cl-). Finally, we identify that hysteresis in measuring the reversibility of ion adsorption and desorption at fused silica in forward and reverse titrations manifests itself both in Stern layer structure and in total interfacial potential for some of the salts, most notably for CaCl2 and MgSO4 but less so for BaCl2 and NaCl.

Abstract
The binding of group II metal cations such as Ca2+ and Mg2+ has been largely categorized as electrostatic or ionic using carboxylate symmetric and asymmetric stretching frequency assignments that have been historically used with little regard for the solvation environment of aqueous solutions. However, given the importance of these cations and their binding mechanisms related to biological function and in revealing surface enrichment factors for ocean to marine aerosol transfer, it is imperative that a deeper understanding be sought to include hydration effects. Here, infrared reflection-absorption and Raman spectra for surface and solution phase carboxylate binding information, respectively, are compared against bare (unbound) carboxylate and bidentate Zn2+:carboxylate spectral signatures. Spectral non-coincidence effect analysis, temperature studies, and spectral and potential of mean force calculations result in a concise interpretation of binding motifs that include the role of mediating water molecules, that is, contact and solvent-shared ion pairs. Calcium directly binds to the carboxylate group in contact ion pairs where magnesium rarely does. Moreover, we reveal the dominance of the solvent-shared ion pair of magnesium with carboxylate at the air-water interface and in solution.

Abstract
Complementing the microscopic picture of the surface structure of electrolyte solutions set out by previous theoretical and experimental studies, the ionizing surface potential technique offers a unique approach to quantifying the impact of aqueous inorganic ions upon the interfacial electric field of the air-aqueous interface. In this Feature Article, we review the vulnerability of theoretical and empirically derived χwater values as a normative reference for aqueous ion surface potentials. Instead, we recognize and evaluate aqueous ion surface potentials relative to well-known ionic surfactants cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). Additionally, we also explore factors that impact the magnitude of the measured surface potentials using the ionizing method, particularly in the type of reference electrode and ionizing gas environment. With potential measurements of sodium halide solutions, we show that iodide has a dominant effect on the air-aqueous electric field. Compared to chloride and bromide, iodide is directly observed with a net negatively charged surface electric field at all salt concentrations measured (0.2 to 3.0 mol/kg water). Also, above the 2 M region, bromide is observed with a net negatively charged surface. Although several scenarios contribute to this effect, it is most likely due to the surface enrichment of bromide and iodide. While the results of this study are pertinent to determining the specific interfacial reactivity of aqueous halides, these anions seldom transpire as single-halide systems in the natural environment. Therefore, we also provide an outlook on future research concerning surface potential methods and more complex aqueous electrolyte systems.

Abstract
The ubiquity of aqueous solutions in contact with charged surfaces and the realization that the molecular-level details of water-surface interactions often determine interfacial functions and properties relevant in many natural processes have led to intensive research. Even so, many open questions remain regarding the molecular picture of the interfacial organization and preferential alignment of water molecules, as well as the structure of water molecules and ion distributions at different charged interfaces. While water, solutes and charge are present in each of these systems, the substrate can range from living tissues to metals. This diversity in substrates has led to different communities considering each of these types of aqueous interface. In this Review, by considering water in contact with metals, oxides and biomembranes, we show the essential similarity of these disparate systems. While in each case the classical mean-field theories can explain many macroscopic and mesoscopic observations, it soon becomes apparent that such theories fail to explain phenomena for which molecular properties are relevant, such as interfacial chemical conversion. We highlight the current knowledge and limitations in our understanding and end with a view towards future opportunities in the field.

Abstract
Nonresonant second harmonic generation (SHG) phase and amplitude measurements obtained from the silica-water interface at varying pH values and an ionic strength of 0.5 M point to the existence of a nonlinear susceptibility term, which we call χX(3), that is associated with a 90° phase shift. Including this contribution in a model for the total effective second-order nonlinear susceptibility produces reasonable point estimates for interfacial potentials and second-order nonlinear susceptibilities when χX(3) ≈ 1.5χwater(3). A model without this term and containing only traditional χ(2) and χ(3) terms cannot recapitulate the experimental data. The new model also provides a demonstrated utility for distinguishing apparent differences in the second-order nonlinear susceptibility when the electrolyte is NaCl versus MgSO4, pointing to the possibility of using heterodyne-detected SHG to investigate ion specificity in interfacial processes.

Abstract
Ice nucleating particles (INPs) influence weather and climate by their effect on cloud phase state. Fatty alcohols present within aerosol particles confer a potentially important source of ice nucleation activity to sea spray aerosol produced in oceanic regions. However, their interactions with other aerosol components and the influence on freezing were previously largely unknown. Here, we report quantitative measurements of fatty alcohols in model sea spray aerosol and examine the relationships between the composition and structure of the surfactants and subphase in the context of these measurements. Deposited mixtures of surfactants retain the ability to nucleate ice, even in fatty acid-dominant compositions. Strong refreezing effects are also observed, where previously frozen water-surfactant samples nucleate more efficiently. Structural sources of refreezing behavior are identified as either kinetically trapped film states or three-dimensional (3D) solid surfactant particles. Salt effects are especially important for surfactant INPs, where high salt concentrations suppress freezing. A simple water uptake model suggests that surfactant-containing aerosol requires either very low salt content or kinetic trapping as solid particles to act as INPs in the atmosphere. These types of INPs could be identified through comparison of different INP instrument responses.

Abstract
We develop a new, to the best of our knowledge, optical scheme based on second-harmonic generation (SHG) at multiple wavelengths for unequivocal separation of the second-order and the electric-field-induced third-order nonlinear optical contributions from aqueous interfaces. The third-order SHG originating from the field-induced reorientation order of water molecules in the electrical double layer offers an optical label-free and inherent probe to the surface charge density and surface potential in the absolute scales. We verify this wavelength-scanning SHG scheme both theoretically and experimentally, and show that the approach is applicable to water interfaces with bulk ionic strength below 500 µM and can achieve a detection sensitivity for a surface charge density of ∼10-4C/m2.

Abstract
Polycation and peptide-modified surfaces represent opportunities for developing potentially novel biocidal materials in a growing effort to combat bacterial resistance to traditional bactericides. It is well-known that the positive charge of these compounds is crucial to their function in biofouling prevention and as antimicrobials; however, methods for quantifying the number of positive charges on surface-bound polycations and peptides are necessary to predict, control, and optimize the design and therefore the utility of these compounds. This Spotlight on Applications reports on such an approach that combines second harmonic generation (SHG) spectroscopy, quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D), and atomistic simulations to obtain mechanistic insight into polycation-membrane interactions using supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) as our model system. We find that at high surface coverage, the large polycations we surveyed feature a considerably smaller percentage of ionization when compared to the smaller polycations and peptides. At these high charge densities, we suspect a pKa shift of the charged groups to lower charge-charge repulsion as well as the formation of a looplike conformation such that less monomeric units form contact-ion pairs with the bilayer. Our sum frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy results complement our understanding of the polycation-membrane interaction. At a high density of the polycation poly(allylamine hydrochloride) (PAH), second-order spectral line shapes are consistent with the expulsion of interfacial water molecules possibly due to contact-ion pair formation between PAH and the lipid bilayer. This finding could be essential for understanding the underlying first steps of cell lysis and penetration by polycations and should be explored further.

Abstract
Environmental temperature has a well-conserved effect on the pulse velocity and excitability of excitable biological systems. The consistency suggests that the cause originates from a fundamental principle. A physical (hydrodynamic) approach has proposed that the thermodynamic state of the hydrated interface (e.g., plasma membrane) determines the pulse behavior. This implies that the temperature effect happens because the environmental temperature affects the state of the interface in any given system. To test the hypothesis, we measured temperature-dependent phase diagrams of a lipid monolayer and studied the properties of nonlinear acoustic pulses excited along the membrane. We observed that the membrane in the fluid-gel transition regime exhibited lower compressibility (i.e., stiffer) overall with increasing temperature. Nonlinear pulses excited near the transition state propagated with greater velocity with increasing temperature, and these observations were consistent with the compressibility profiles. Excitability was suppressed significantly or ceased completely when the state departed too far from the transition regime either by cooling or by heating. The overall correlation between the pulses in the membrane and in living systems as a function of temperature supports the view that the thermodynamic state of the interface and phase transition are the key to understanding pulse propagation in excitable systems.

Abstract
Hyaluronic acid and phospholipids are two components that are present in the synovial fluid, and both are implicated as important facilitators of joint lubrication. In this work we aim to clarify how hyaluronic acid interacts with a phospholipid bilayer through their molecular interactions at the bilayer surface. To this end we performed molecular dynamics simulations of one hyaluronic acid molecule at a phospholipid bilayer in aqueous solution. The simulations were carried out for two aqueous solutions of equal concentrations, containing either NaCl or CaCl2. We analyzed hydrogen bonds, hydrophobic contacts and cation mediated bridges to clarify how hyaluoronic acid binds to a phospholipid bilayer. The analysis shows that calcium ions promote longer lasting bonds between the species as they create calcium ion bridges between the carboxylate group of hyaluronic acid and the phosphate group of the phospholipid. This type of additional bonding does not significantly influence the total number of contact created, but rather stabilizes the contact. The presented results can facilitate understanding of the role of hyaluronic acid and phospholipid interactions in terms of lubrication of articular cartilage.

Abstract
Proteins that contain C2 domains are involved in a variety of biological processes, including encoding of sound, cell signaling, and cell membrane repair. Of particular importance is the interface activity of the C-terminal C2F domain of otoferlin due to the pathological mutations known to significantly disrupt the protein's lipid membrane interface binding activity, resulting in hearing loss. Therefore, there is a critical need to define the geometry and positions of functionally important sites and structures at the otoferlin-lipid membrane interface. Here, we describe the first in situ probe of the protein orientation of otoferlin's C2F domain interacting with a cell membrane surface. To identify this protein's orientation at the lipid interface, we applied sum frequency generation (SFG) vibrational spectroscopy and coupled it with simulated SFG spectra to observe and quantify the otoferlin C2F domain interacting with model lipid membranes. A model cell membrane was built with equal amounts of phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylcholine. SFG measurements of the lipids that make up the model membrane indicate a 62% increase in amplitude from the SFG signal near 2075 cm-1 upon protein interaction, suggesting domain-induced changes in the orientation of the lipids and possible membrane curvature. This increase is related to lipid ordering caused by the docking interaction of the otoferlin C2F domain. SFG spectra taken from the amide-I region contain features near 1630 and 1670 cm-1 related to the C2F domains beta-sandwich secondary structure, thus indicating that the domain binds in a specific orientation. By mapping the simulated SFG spectra to the experimentally collected SFG spectra, we found the C2F domain of otoferlin orients 22° normal to the lipid surface. This information allows us to map what portion of the domain directly interacts with the lipid membrane.

Abstract
The condensing effect and the ability of cholesterol (CHOL) to induce ordering in lipid films is a question of relevance in biological membranes such as the milk fat globule membrane (MFGM) in which the amount of CHOL influences the phase separation and mechanical resistance to rupture of coexisting phases relevant to emulsified food systems. Here, we study the effect of different salts (NaCl, CaCl2, MgCl2, LaCl3) on monolayers made of a model mixture of lipids (DPPC:DPPS 4:1) and CHOL. To this end, we apply Langmuir Film Balance to report a combined analysis of surface pressure-area (π-A) and surface potential-area (ΔV–A) isotherms along with Micro-Brewster Angle Microscopy (Micro-BAM) images of the monolayers in the presence of the different electrolytes. We show that the condensation of lipid by CHOL depends strongly on the nature of the ions by altering the shape and features of the π-A isotherms. ΔV–A isotherms provide further detail on the ion specific interactions with CHOL. Our results show that the condensation of lipids in the presence of CHOL depends on the combined action of ions and CHOL, which can alter the physical state of the monolayer.

Abstract
Anionic lipids are increasingly being used in lipoplexes for synthetic gene vectors as an alternative to cationic lipids. This is primarily due to their lower toxicity, which makes them biocompatible and adaptable to be tissue specific. However, anionic lipoplexes require the presence of multivalent cations to promote the electrostatic attraction between DNA and anionic lipid mono- and bilayers. In this work we provide for the first time experimental results of the adsorption of linear DNA onto anionic/zwitterionic lipid monolayers without any addition of cations. This is demonstrated experimentally by means of Langmuir monolayers of DOPE/DOPG (1:1) lipids spread on a water subphase that contains calf thymus DNA. The adsorption of DNA onto anionic/zwitterionic lipid monolayers is discussed in terms of the surface pressure-molecular area isotherms recorded in the absence and in the presence of different electrolytes. Measurements of the surface potential provide additional evidence of the different interaction of DNA anionic/zwitterionic lipid monolayers depending on the presence and nature of electrolyte. These experimental results are further analysed in terms of the overall dipole moment normal to the monolayers providing new insight into the behaviour of anionic lipoplexes and the role of zwitterionic lipids.

Abstract
The interfacial electrical potential is an important parameter influencing, for instance, electrochemical reactions and biomolecular interactions at membranes. A deeper understanding of different methods that measure quantities related to the surface potential is thus of great scientific and technological relevance. We use lipid monolayers with varying charge density and thoroughly compare the results of surface potential measurements performed with the vibrating plate capacitor method and second harmonic generation spectroscopy. The two techniques provide very different results as a function of surface charge. Using the molecular information on lipid alkyl chain, lipid headgroup, and interfacial water provided by sum frequency generation spectroscopy, we disentangle the different contributions to the surface potential measured by the different techniques. Our results show that the two distinct approaches are dominated by different molecular moieties and effects. While the shape of the SPOT method response as a function of charge density is dominated by the lipid carbonyl groups, the SHG results contain contributions from the interfacial water molecules, the lipids and hyper-Rayleigh scattering.

Abstract
β-Galactosylsphingosine or psychosine (PSY) is a single chain sphingolipid with a cationic group, which is degraded in the lysosome lumen by β-galactosylceramidase during sphingolipid biosynthesis. A deficiency of this enzyme activity results in Krabbe's disease and PSY accumulation. This favors its escape to extralysosomal spaces, with its pH changing from acidic to neutral. We studied the interaction of PSY with model lipid membranes in neutral conditions, using phospholipid vesicles and monolayers as classical model systems, as well as a complex lipid mixture that mimics the lipid composition of myelin. At pH 7.4, when PSY is mainly neutral, it showed high surface activity, self-organizing into large structures, probably lamellar in nature, with a CMC of 38 ± 3 μM. When integrated into phospholipid membranes, PSY showed preferential partition into disordered phases, shifting phase equilibrium. The presence of PSY reduces the compactness of the membrane, making it more easily compressible. It also induces lipid domain disruption in vesicles composed of the main myelin lipids. The surface electrostatics of lipid membranes was altered by PSY in a complex manner. A shift to positive zeta potential values evidenced its presence in the vesicles. Furthermore, the increase of surface potential and surface water structuring observed may be a consequence of its location at the interface of the positively charged layer. As Krabbe's disease is a demyelinating process, PSY alteration of the membrane phase state, lateral lipid distribution and surface electrostatics appears important to the understanding of myelin destabilization at the supramolecular level.

Abstract
Lipid molecules and trace heavy metals are enriched in sea surface microlayer and can be transferred into the sea spray aerosol. To better understand their impact on marine aerosol generation and evolution, we investigated the interaction of trace heavy metals including Fe3+, Pb2+, Zn2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, Cr3+, Cd2+, and Co2+, with dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) monolayers at the air-water interface. Phase behavior of the DPPC monolayer on heavy metal solutions was probed with surface pressure-area (π-A) isotherms. The conformation order and orientation of DPPC alkyl chains were characterized by infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (IRRAS). The π-A isotherms show that Zn2+ and Fe3+ strongly interact with DPPC molecules, and induce condensation of the monolayers in a concentration-dependent manner. IRRAS spectra show that the formation of cation-DPPC complex gives rise to conformational changes and immobilization of the headgroups. The current results suggest that the enrichment of Zn2+ in sea spray aerosols is due to strong binding to the DPPC film. The interaction of Fe3+ with DPPC monolayers can significantly influence their surface organizations through the formation of lipid-coated particles. These results suggest that the sea surface microlayer is capable of accumulating much higher amounts of these metals than the subsurface water. The organic and metal pollutants may transfer into the atmosphere by this interaction.

Abstract
We studied by means of Grazing Incidence X-ray Diffraction (GIXD) coupled with X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy the structure of a behenic acid monolayer spread at the surface of Mg2+/Mn2+ mixed aqueous solutions. For the pure Mg2+ and Mn2+ aqueous solutions, the cations induce at the surface different 2D lattice superstructures of the organic monolayer. These superstructures correspond to an inorganic organized monolayer anchored to the hydrophilic group of the ordered behenic acid monolayer. Among the various diffraction peaks, we focused on those characteristics of the behenic acid oblique cell. As the Mg2+ mole fraction x increases in the Mg2+/Mn2+ mixed subphase, a continuous evolution of the oblique cell parameters is observed indicating the insertion of Mg2+ cations in the Mn2+ ordered monolayer. Then, a further increase leads to the appearance of a coexistence between two oblique surface phases. The cell parameters of both phases evolve continuously along the x range of the transition until a single Mg-rich ordered phase is detected. However, although the intensities of the peaks in the coexistence region are in agreement with a first-order phase transition, the cell parameters evolve simultaneously. Considering a thermodynamics analysis, this evidences that, apart from the concentration, another unidentified intensive parameter is varying. We suggest that it is the ionic strength, which appears to be strongly related to the concentrations.

Abstract
Transition metals are known to be enriched in organic-coated marine aerosols, but the impact these cations have on their surface properties is not well understood. Here the effect of Zn2+ enrichment on the surface properties of a dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine (DPPC) monolayer was investigated and compared to that of the alkaline earth metal Sr2+, an ion not enriched in aerosols. Phase behavior of the DPPC film on concentrated aqueous solutions was probed with surface pressure-area isotherms while domain morphology was monitored with Brewster angle microscopy (BAM). Infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (IRRAS) and vibrational sum frequency generation (VSFG) spectroscopy were used to assess the impact of cations on the conformation and orientation of alkyl chains as well as the hydration state of the carbonyl and phosphatidylcholine (PC) moieties. Results of compression isotherms and BAM show that Zn2+ strongly interacts with DPPC molecules, and induces condensation of the monolayer while Sr2+ only weakly interacts with the monolayer in expanded phases. Conformational order and orientation of alkyl chains in the condensed phase are not significantly altered by either cation. IRRAS indicates that Sr2+ has weak interactions with the PC headgroup. Zn2+ ions cause dehydration of carbonyl groups and binds to the phosphate group in a 2 : 1 bridging complex. Findings here suggest that Sr2+ is not enriched in aerosols because it behaves similar to a monovalent ion and only weakly interacts with the monolayer, while enrichment of Zn2+ is due to strong binding to the lipid film.

Abstract
An electric double layer forms when the small mobile ions of an electrolyte interact with an extended charged object, a macroion. The competition between electrostatic attraction and translational entropy loss of the small ions results in a diffuse layer of partially immobilized ions in the vicinity of the macroion. Modeling structure and energy of the electric double layer has a long history that has lead to the classical Poisson-Boltzmann theory and numerous extensions that account for ion-ion correlations and structural ion and solvent properties. The present review focuses on approaches that instead of going beyond the mean-field character of Poisson-Boltzmann theory introduce structural details of the ions and the solvent into the Poisson-Boltzmann modeling framework. The former include not only excluded volume effects but also the presence of charge distributions on individual ions, spatially extended ions, and internal ionic degrees of freedom. The latter treat the solvent either explicitly as interacting Langevin dipoles or in the form of effective non-electrostatic interactions, in particular Yukawa interactions, that are added to the Coulomb potential. We discuss how various theoretical models predict structural properties of the electric double layer such as the differential capacitance and compare some of these predictions with computer simulations.

Abstract
The Langmuir monolayers of L-α-phosphatidylcholine from egg yolk were studied by Wilhelmy method. The surface pressure versus molecular area isotherm of lipid on pure water and different subphase (with a presence of divalent ions: Sr2+, Cd2+, Ba2+, Pb2+) was obtained. The limiting area of the isotherms depends on the presence of subphase ions. The addition of divalent ions to the subphase stabilized the monolayers and increased the limiting areas of the monolayer. During the compression in monolayer complexes of 1:1 and 2:1 stoichiometry between L-α-phosphatidylcholine from egg yolk and divalent ions are formed. We used the equilibrium theory to describe the behavior of monolayer components at the air/water interface. An equilibrium theory to describe the behavior of monolayer components at the air/water interface was developed in order to obtain the stability constants and area occupied by one molecule of LMe2+ or L2Me2+ complexes, and complex formation energy (Gibbs free energy) values. These mathematically derived and experimentally confirmed values are of great importance for the interpretation of phenomena occurring in lipid monolayers and bilayers.

Abstract
Second-order nonlinear spectroscopy has proven to be a powerful tool in elucidating key chemical and structural characteristics at a variety of interfaces. However, the presence of interfacial potentials may lead to complications regarding the interpretation of second harmonic and vibrational sum frequency generation responses from charged interfaces due to mixing of absorptive and dispersive contributions. Here, we examine by means of mathematical modeling how this interaction influences second-order spectral lineshapes. We discuss our findings in the context of reported nonlinear optical spectra obtained from charged water/air and solid/liquid interfaces and demonstrate the importance of accounting for the interfacial potential-dependent χ(3) term in interpreting lineshapes when seeking molecular information from charged interfaces using second-order spectroscopy. Charged interfaces are important in chemical systems, but the influence of charge on vibrational sum frequency spectra has only recently been considered. Here the authors show the importance of accounting for the interfacial potential-dependent χ(3) term in interpreting spectral lineshapes from charged interfaces.

The interactions between Ca2+ ions and sphingomyelin play crucial roles in a wide range of cellular activities. However, little is known about the molecular details of the interactions at interfaces. In this work, we investigated the interactions between Ca2+ ions and egg sphingomyelin (ESM) Langmuir monolayers at the air/water interface by subwavenumber high-resolution broadband sum frequency generation vibrational spectroscopy (HR-BB-SFG-VS). We show that Ca2+ ions can induce ordering of the acyl chains in the ESM monolayer. An analysis of the one alkyl-chain-deuterated ESM revealed that the Ca2+ ions do not affect the N-linked saturated fatty acid chain, although they make the sphingosine backbone become ordered. Further analysis of the SFG-VS spectra shows that the interactions between ESM and Ca2+ ions make the orientation of the methyl group at the end of sphingosine backbone change from pointing downward to pointing upward. Moreover, a large blue shift of the phosphate group at the CaCl2 solution interface indicates, to our knowledge, new cation binding modes. Such binding causes the phosphate moiety to dehydrate, resulting in the conformation change of the phosphate moiety. Based on these results, we propose the molecular mechanism that Ca2+ ions can bind to the phosphate group and subsequently destroy the intramolecular hydrogen bond between the 3-hydroxyl group and the phosphate oxygen, which results in an ordering change of the sphingosine backbone. These findings illustrate the potential application of HR-BB-SFG-VS to investigate lipid-cation interactions and the calcium channel modulated by lipid domain formation through slight structural changes in the membrane lipid. It will also shed light on the interactions of complex molecules at surfaces and interfaces.

Abstract
The interaction between multivalent ions and lipid membranes with saturated tails and dipolar (net neutral) headgroups can lead to adsorption of the ions onto the membrane. The ions charge the membranes and contribute to electrostatic repulsion between them, in a similar manner to membranes containing charged lipids. Using solution X-ray scattering and the osmotic stress method, we measured and modeled the pressure-distance curves between partially charged membranes containing mixtures of charged (1,2-dilauroyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-l-serine, DLPS) and dipolar (1,2-dilauroyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, DLPC) lipids over a wide range of membrane charge densities. We then compared these pressure-distance curves with those of DLPC membranes in the presence of 10 mM CaCl2. Our data and modeling show that when low osmotic stress is applied to the DLPC bilayers, the membrane charge density is equivalent to that of a charged membrane containing ca. 4 mol % DLPS and 96 mol % DLPC. As the osmotic stress increased, the charge density of the DLPC membrane decreased and resembled that of a membrane containing ca. 1 mol % DLPS. These data are consistent with desorption of the calcium ions from the DLPC membrane with increasing osmotic stress.

Abstract
Atmospheric aerosol particles composed of a mixture of organic and inorganic compounds are common and constitute an important fraction of air pollutants. In this study, the activities of common atmospheric inorganic ions (Ag+, Zn2+, Fe3+, Fe2+, Ca2+ and Al3+) and fatty acid molecules (stearic acid and arachidic acid) at air-aqueous interface were investigated by Langmuir methods and infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (IRRAS). In the presence of different inorganic ions, surface pressure-area isotherms of the Langmuir films showed compressed or expanded characteristics. IRRAS spectra confirmed that the existence of inorganic ions in the fatty acid monolayer changes the surface properties of aqueous-phase aerosols. Formation of different coordination types of carboxylates at the air-water interface alters the dissolution and partitioning behavior, which has significant influence of Raoult effect on nucleating cloud droplets. Our work displays the relationship between structure and surface properties for aqueous-phase aerosols and implies an efficient method for further understanding of their formation mechanism and potential atmospheric implications.

Abstract
An anomalous maximum in the ionic strength dependent electrophoretic mobility curves has been observed in previous reports from particles dispersed in colloids. This maximum has been considered anomalous because it is contradictory with the Gouy-Chapman model. The existence of such a maximum has been attributed to specific ionic adsorption, a hairy layer at the surface, or the effect of the anomalous change of surface conductivity in different studies. It was also pointed out that the O'Brien-White approach based on the Gouy-Chapman model could be used to understand this maximum in electrophoretic mobility curves and lead to understandable zeta potential curves. This implied that the observed maximum was actually not "anomalous". In this work we report our simulation of ionic strength dependent zeta potential curves based on the O'Brien-White approach and experimental studies of the ionic strength dependent electrophoretic mobility of the hexadecane droplets in the hexadecane-water emulsions at different pH or in the presence of sodium dodecyl sulphate at varied concentrations. In some cases, the simulation shows that the calculation with the O'Brien-White approach does change the trend in the concerned ionic strength dependent curves. However, the simulation in some other cases also leads to similar trends in the ionic strength dependent electrophoretic mobility curves and zeta potential curves. In the experiments, both the existence and non-existence of such a maximum were observed and demonstrated to be system dependent. The corresponding molecular structure of the oil-water interface was then discussed with the analyses of the zeta potential curves and second harmonic generation signals recorded at the hexadecane-water interface.

Abstract
Although theories have been developed that describe surface activity of organic molecules at the air-water interface, few studies have tested how surface activity impacts the selective transfer of molecules from solution phase into the aerosol phase during bubble bursting. The selective transfer of a series of organic compounds that differ in their solubility and surface activity from solution into the aerosol phase is quantified experimentally for the first time. Aerosol was produced from solutions containing salts and a series of linear carboxlyates (LCs) and dicarboxylates (LDCs) using a bubble bursting process. Surface activity of these molecules dominated the transport across the interface, with enrichment factors of the more surface-active C4-C8 LCs (55 ± 8) being greater than those of C4-C8 LDCs (5 ± 1). Trends in the estimated surface concentrations of LCs at the liquid-air interface agreed well with their relative concentrations in the aerosol phase. In addition, enrichment of LCs was followed by enrichment of calcium with respect to other inorganic cations and depletion of chloride and sulfate.
