The Properties and Role of O-Acyl-ω-hydroxy Fatty Acids and Type I-St and Type II Diesters in the Tear Film Lipid Layer Revealed by a Combined Chemistry and Biophysics Approach

[Image: see text] The tear film lipid layer (TFLL) that covers the ocular surface contains several unique lipid classes, including O-acyl-ω-hydroxy fatty acids, type I-St diesters, and type II diesters. While the TFLL represents a unique biological barrier that plays a central role in stabilizing th...
