Comparison Between Aqueous and Nonaqueous AOT-Heptane Reverse Micelles Using Acridine Orange as Molecular Probe
نویسنده
چکیده
Aqueous and nonaqueous AOT/n-heptane reverse micelles where characterized by UV-Visible and fluorescence spectroscopy of AO. The study shows the presence of the dimer in aqueous reverse micelles which is not present in the nonaqueous systems. It seems that there is a conversion of the dimer to monomer in the aqueous reverse micelles at high AOT concentration. In the nonaqueous systems, there is only partition of the monomer. The apparent constants of these processes were calculated.

To probe the structure of methanol and Aerosol OT (AOT) in AOT reverse micelles by FTIR measurements.
We have reported the study of methanol/AOT/n-heptane reverse micellar aggregates using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. We have divided our whole work into two parts. In the first part we have studied the structural properties of Aerosol OT (AOT) reverse micelles by monitoring the changes in the symmetrical sulfonate stretching region (1000-1100 cm(-1)), asymmetrical sulfonate st...

In this paper electrical conductivity measurements and optical investigations takes place in AOT/ heptane/ (water or aqueous) systems. The water in oil system prepared with adding water in 50% by weight of AOT/ heptane solution. In other systems instead of water, aqueous solutions of 1) zinc acetate and water 2) Potassium Hydroxide and water were used. In each phase, the trend of the electrica...

متن کاملFluorescence relaxation dynamics of acridine orange in nanosized micellar systems and DNA.
In this paper, we report a detailed study of the fluorescence relaxation dynamics of a well-known fluorescent DNA intercalator, acridine orange (AO), in reverse micelles (RM), micelles, and DNA using picosecond resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. Solvation studies of AO in AOT reverse micelles (RM) containing water indicate the locations of AO close to the interface and those in RM containing N...

The properties of confined water and diffusive proton-transfer kinetics in the nanoscopic water channels of Nafion fuel cell membranes at various hydration levels are compared to water in a series of well-characterized AOT reverse micelles with known water nanopool sizes using the photoacid pyranine as a molecular probe. The side chains of Nafion are terminated by sulfonate groups with sodium c...
