Polymer adsorption is widely used to modify surfaces. To investigate the protective effect against free oxygen radicals polyethylenimine (PEI) is adsorbed onto oppositely charged DMPG lipid monolayers at the air/water interface. The structure of the lipid-polyelectrolyte system is investigated with X-ray reflectivity and grazing incidence diffraction. At different pH-values and mixed with a variety of salts PEI adsorbs flatly (2.8 nm). But in the presence of Fe(II)SO4 and EDTA in the solution a 15nm thick PEI layer is formed due to incorporation of Fe2+ EDTA complexes. Radical oxygen species are produced via the Fenton’s reaction. The reaction is started by H2O2 injection. If a highly compressed monolayer is attacked, the lateral pressure is reduced by 10mN/m within 30min for thin and 3h for thick adsorbed PEI layers. With X-ray reflectivity it is observed that the PEI layer shrinks and eventually disappears. Simultaneously, Fe2+ binds to the lipid monolayer and the solid lipid phase changes from NN-tilted to hexagonal.
