    Abstract:
    The structures formed by aqueous dispersions of cardiolipin isolated from bovine heart and B. subtilis have been studied by 31P-NMR and freeze-fracture electron microscopy. The sodium salts of both cardiolipins form bilayers. The Ca2+, Mg2+ and Ba2+ salts undergo well-defined bilayer leads to hexagonal (HII) transitions, the temperature of which is dependent on the cation involved and the fatty acid composition of the cardiolipin.
