What is the mass of a POPC lipid?? I cannot find it through online searches

Hi. It seems like a simple question to me. I just want to know the mass of a POPC lipid molecule either in amu or any other mass unit.

From searching online I only get results of journal articles that did something or other with POPC lipids for experiments but I either don't have access to these papers or it seems that they do not directly state this anywhere anyway.

Thanks.

Thread 'How to make Sodium Chlorate by Electrolysis of salt water?'

I have a power supply for electrolysis of salt water brine, variable 3v to 6v up to 30 amps. Cathode is stainless steel, anode is carbon rods. Carbon rod surface area 42" sq. the Stainless steel cathode should be 21" sq. Salt is pure 100% salt dissolved into distilled water. I have been making saturated salt wrong. Today I learn saturated salt is, dissolve pure salt into 150°f water cool to 100°f pour into the 2 gallon brine tank. I find conflicting information about brine tank...
