The effect of different cholesterol (Chol)-content on the mixed monolayer of the phosphatidylethanolamine (PE)/phosphatidylcholine (PC) (1∶1 molar ratio) has been investigated by analyzing the surface pressure-area isotherms. And the thermodynamic behavior of mixed monolayer of Chol and PE/PC (1∶1 molar ratio) has been investigated by calculating and analyzing the excess molecular area and excess Gibbs energy (ΔAex and ΔGex). The results show that Chol accelerated the phase transition and promoted the aggregation of monolayer. When XChol=0.2, 0.6, 0.8, ΔAex and ΔGex displayed negative values, suggesting attractive interaction between molecules. While XChol=0.4, ΔAex and ΔGex displayed positive values at the surface pressure of 15, 20, 25, 30 mN/m, indicating repelling interaction between molecules, promoting the increasing of the entropy. In addition, the deposited Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) monolayers of different ratios were investigated with atomic force microscopy (AFM).
