Review in The Biological applications of glycolipids liquid crystals

Glycolipids are essential components in the most living systems cells. They can playing different roles and activities inside and outside the bilayer membrane that surrounding the cells. They consider as biosurfactants because their structure that is contain polar head groups and the other accompany part the non-polar long-chain alcohols. In this context, these bio-surfactants can found in different phases in lyotropic liquid crystalline properties and therefore, many actions that related to these phases can offer a wide-range of roles like antibacterial, antifungal anti-cancer and antenna for most recognition of the materials that affected the cell membranes.
