Reference: deux chaînes (aliphatiques ?) ou gemini?

Reference information:
Le terme courant est "deux chaînes":
http://grenet.drimm.u-bordeaux1.fr/pdf/2007/AIME_CAROLE_2007...
CnNMP : tensioactif constitué d’une tête ammonium quaternaire substituée par deux chaînes aliphatiques à n carbones, et complexé à un Nucléotide MonoPhosphate
mais le texte source aurait pu "utiliser" two chains" ou "double chain", le terme "twin" est inhabituel

Donc je me demande si ce ne pourrait pas être des ammoniums quaternaires gemini, sachant que dans ce cas le terme le plus courant est aussi "gemini" en anglais?
