Ethoxylated alcohols, widely used as surfactants, are known to be susceptible to oxidation when exposed to air. At autoxidation, a complex mixture is formed, in which alkyl poly(ethylene glycol) aldehydes, alkyl poly(ethylene glycol) formates, hydroxyaldehydes, and formaldehyde have previously been

Control of the size and agglomeration of micellar systems is important for pharmaceutical applications such as drug delivery. Although shape-related transitions in surfactant solutions are studied experimentally, their molecular mechanisms are still not well understood. In this study, we use

We have studied the topological transition of the nonionic micelles of a penta-ethyleneglycol mono n-dodecyl ether (C12E5)/DL-alpha-phosphatidylcholine Dimyristoyl (DMPC) mixture in water by light scattering and viscosity measurements. The topological transition concentration decreases with an increase of the mixing ratio

The present paper reports on the phase behaviour of the pseudobinary aqueous mixtures of 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC)/pentaethylene glycol monododecyl ether (C12E5) and 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine monohydrate (DMPC)/C12E5. Both systems exhibit a variety of mesophases, such as lamellar gel, liquid crystalline and micellar phases.

At 0 to 20 degrees C, the Ca(2+)-ATPase activity of the scallop sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) was observed to be 7-60% of the peak activity at 30 degrees C, while the ATPase activity of the rabbit SR was 0-7% of its
