Characterization of the Lateral Distribution of Fluorescent Lipid in Binary-Constituent Lipid Monolayers by Principal Component Analysis

Figure 3

First two principal vectors of 52 fluorescence spectra. The elements of the first two principal vectors, and , respectively, are plotted against the 2048 wavelengths where each of the 52 fluorescence spectra was measured. Each measured spectrum can be approximated by the linear combination of these two curves (see (4)). The first and second principal vectors are marked by red and blue dots, respectively.
