In this paper, the effects of model (commercial) and natural (extracted from peat) humic substances on the membrane of liposomes formed with egg yolk lecithin (EYL) are presented. In our research, mass concentrations of fulvic and humic acids were used, which in relation to lecithin varied from 0% to 13%. To study membrane fluidity, electron spin resonance (EPR) was used with two spin probes, penetrating various regions of the lipid bilayer. The effects of model and natural humic substances (humic acids – HAs and fulvic acids – FAs) on the lipid membrane in different regions were researched: the lipid-water interphase, and in the middle of the lipid bilayer. It was shown that FA and HA impact the fluidity of liposome membranes in different ways. Increased mass concentrations of HAs decreased membrane fluidity in both acids: extracted from peat and the model. However, increased mass concentration of FAs extracted from peat, decreased membrane fluidity in the surface region, at the same time stiffening the central part of the bilayer. Increasing the concentration of FAs extracted from peat had the opposite effect when compared to model FA. This effect may be related to the complexation of xenobiotics present in the soil environment and their impact on biological membranes.

In this paper the changes of membrane fluidity of liposome with additions of humic substances (humic and fulvic acids) were examined. Liposome were done by the sonication of lecithin EYL. Concentrations of humic substances in attitude to EYL varied between 0–10% of weight. The technique of electron spin resonance (ESR) were used for the examination followed by three spin probes with a variety placement of the membrane located. TEMPO probe melted in the hydrophobic membrane and in the aquatic solution which allowed to determine the spectroscopic partition parameter (F), indicating the changes that occur in water-lipid interphase. Probe 5-DOXYL placed directly under the heads of polar lipids and the order parameter measuring by the TII showed the changing of membrane fluidity at surface area. 16-DOXYL probe penetrated the middle of the lipid bilayer membrane and allowed to determine the rotational correlation time τ parameter, which gives us information about changing of the liquidity lipid bilayer. Studies showed that the tested humic substances significantly changed the membrane fluidity of liposome. The dynamics of this process depends on both: the fraction of humic substances and its quality and quantity as well as the placement area of the membrane.
