Interactions of β-lactoglobulin with Cationic Surfactants: Spectroscopy Study

interactions of β-lactoglobulin with cationic surfactants: spectroscopy study

the interactions of β-lactoglobulin ab in the presence of cationic surfactants such as cetyltrimethylammonium bromide and cetyltrimethylammonium p-toluenesulfonate have been investigated using a variety of experimental techniques such as conductivity, uv-vis spectrophotometry and fluorimetry. the conductivity of surfactants aqueous solutions with β-lactoglobulin shows that the cmc of cationic s...

Interactions between Cationic Starch and Anionic Surfactants

Aggregation of an anionic azo dye with conventional cationic surfactants in premicellar region: A conductometric study

The interaction of Congo Red CR with a series of Alkyltrimethylamoniumbromide CnTAB, N-hexadecylpyridinium bromide CPB and N-hexadecylpyridinium CPC were investigated using conductometry technique. It was observed that the formation of dye-surfactant ion pairs takes place at surfactant concentration far below the critical micelle concentration of the individual surfactants. Aggregation was refl...

Interaction of cationic surfactants with DNA: a single-molecule study

The interaction of cationic surfactants with single dsDNA molecules has been studied using force-measuring optical tweezers. For hydrophobic chains of length 12 and greater, pulling experiments show characteristic features (e.g. hysteresis between the pulling and relaxation curves, force-plateau along the force curves), typical of a condensed phase (compaction of a long DNA into a micron-sized ...

Interactions between cationic starch and mixed anionic surfactants

The interactions of cationic starch (CS, degree of substitution=0.8)/mixed anionic surfactant/water systems were investigated. The surfactants investigated were sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), sodium octanoate (NaOct), sodium decanoate (NaDe), sodium dodecanoate (NaDod), sodium oleate (NaOl ) and sodium erucate (NaEr). The concentration of CS varied from 0.001 to 10 wt.%. The effect of mixing on...
