Dispersions of Halobacterium cutirubrum polar lipids in buffer and in salt solutions have been investi-gated over a wide temperature range (but above the phase transition) by volumetric dilatometry and electron spin res-onance(esr) spin-labeling with nitroxide-labeled stearic acids and with vanadyl sulfate. The polar lipid fraction is essentially a binary mixture of the diphytanyl ether analogs of phosphatidyl glycerophosphate and of a glycolipid sulfate, in an approximate mole ratio of 2: 1. Stearic acid spinlabels were used to study each pure major component as well. The unusual chemical features of these lipids include uniform, highly branched phytanyl hydrocarbon chains, large anionic head groups, and ether linkages to the phytanyl chains. The thermal coefficient of expansion of the lipids in the presence of added salts (4 ivt NaCl and/or 0.1 M MgCL) was found to decrease with increasing temperature
