The field of biomaterials is constantly seeking innovative ways to enhance biocompatibility, functionality, and performance. O-Phosphorylethanolamine (PEA), a naturally occurring molecule, plays a significant role in this endeavor, particularly through its interactions with metal ions. Understanding these interactions is pivotal for the sophisticated design of next-generation biomaterials.

PEA is a key component in many biological membranes, and its behavior when interacting with prevalent physiological ions, such as magnesium (Mg2+), directly impacts the properties of phospholipid bilayers. Studies investigating the O-Phosphorylethanolamine Mg2+ interaction reveal how these complexes form and influence the structural integrity and fluidity of membranes. This knowledge is transferable to synthetic biomaterials that mimic biological structures.

Specifically, phosphorylcholine-based biomaterials, which are widely used in medical devices due to their excellent biocompatibility, can have their performance modulated by the presence of electrolytes like Mg2+. The way PEA coordinates with Mg2+ influences the overall charge and behavior of these materials. By leveraging detailed chemical analyses and understanding these ionic interactions, researchers can engineer biomaterials with tailored properties for specific clinical applications.
