A colourless liquid hydrocarbon of the alkane series, present in petroleum spirit.
〔化〕癸烷，十碳烷
Chemical formula: C₁₀H₂₂
Example sentencesExamples
The solvent was removed by evaporation with a N 2 stream and the dried lipid film was resuspended in decane to form a final total lipid concentration of 25 mg/ml.
Bilayers were composed of 80% phosphatidylethanolamine and 20% phosphatidylcholine dissolved in decane at a final concentration of 50 mg/ml.
Membranes were made from glycerolmonooleate in either decane or hexadecane.
These compounds are sufficiently soluble in decane to form stable bilayers if they are combined with DOPE.
This restricted diffusional space would account for a decreased gH in various gA channels in GMO / decane in relation to GMO / squalene bilayers.
Definition of decane in US English:

Chemistry
A colorless liquid hydrocarbon of the alkane series, present in petroleum products such as kerosene.
〔化〕癸烷，十碳烷
Chemical formula: C₁₀H₂₂; many isomers, especially the straight-chain isomer (n-decane), which is used as a solvent and in jet fuel research
