Cluster formation in polyelectrolyte-micelle complex coacervation.
The temperature-induced liquid-liquid phase transition (complex coacervation) of a polycation-anionic/nonionic mixed micelle system was examined over a range of macroion concentrations and polycation molecular weights (MW) using turbidimetry and dynamic light scattering (DLS). DLS revealed a progressive increase in complex/aggregate size with temperature up to the phase transition at T(φ), foll...
متن کاملStudies in Confined Biopolymers
In this work we analyze the theoretical aspects of a single polymer confined inside a cavity. The problem is of biological relevance since it is known, for instance, that molecules like proteins need an isolated environment in order to quickly and correctly reach their folded native state. The polymer is considered in the Grand Canonical ensemble of its monomeric units, where its average length...
متن کاملDevelopment of surfactant coacervation in aqueous solution.
Coacervation is a phenomenon in which a colloidal dispersion separates into two immiscible liquid phases: a liquid rich in colloidal phase in equilibrium with another diluted liquid phase. Surfactant coacervation here refers to coacervation whose main components are surfactants with low molecular weights. Over the past two decades, surfactants have been greatly developed and studies on coacerva...
متن کاملMicrobial Biopolymers in Biomedical Field
Biodegradable plastics has gained significant commercial interest in recent years as they are having similar properties to that of the synthetic plastic used now a days, they are completely bio-degradable, are produced from natural (microbial) sources and are biocompatible in human system. These properties make PHB as an ideal candidate for various applications in medical field. The present art...
متن کاملSemiflexible Biopolymers in Bundled Arrangements
Bundles and networks of semiflexible biopolymers are key elements in cells, lending them mechanical integrity while also enabling dynamic functions. Networks have been the subject of many studies, revealing a variety of fundamental characteristics often determined via bulk measurements. Although bundles are equally important in biological systems, they have garnered much less scientific attenti...
