Effects of Salt on Polyelectrolyte-Micelle Coacervation

Turbidity, dynamic light scattering, and electrophoretic mobility were used to study the effects of added salt on coacervation in the system composed of the strong cationic polymer poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDADMAC) and oppositely charged mixed micelles of Triton X-100 (TX100) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). The phase behavior in the range of ionic strengths from 0.05 to 0.60 M ...

Block copolymer micelle nanolithography

Au-nanoclusters between 2 and 8 nm in diameter were deposited onto solid substrates in different pattern geometries. The basis of this approach is the self-assembly of polystyrene-b-poly[2-vinylpyridine (HAuCl4)] diblock copolymer micelles into uniform monomicellar films on solid supports such as Si-wafers or glass cover slips. HAuCl4 as metallic precursor or a single solid Au-nanoparticle caus...

Critical Micelle Concentrations of Gangliosidest

The micellar properties of mixed, bovine gangliosides and purified galactosyl-N-acetylgalactosaminyl(Nacetylneuramin yl)galactosylglucosylceramide were studied by gel filtration, equilibrium dialysis, and band and boundary centrifugation in sucrose gradients. The dissociation of micelles is very slow (days) in water and required us to approach equilibrium by association of monomers rather than ...

NMR studies of the influence of dodecyl sulfate on the amide hydrogen exchange kinetics of a micelle-solubilized hydrophobic tripeptide.

Backbone amide hydrogen exchange measurements are an important source of information about the internal dynamics of proteins. Before such measurements can be interpreted unambiguously, contributions to hydrogen exchange rates from the chemical and physical environment of the amides must be taken into account. Membrane proteins are often solubilized in detergents, yet there have not been any sys...
