Characterization of biosurfactants’ micelles formation using fluorescence measurements: sodium taurocholate as case of study [PDF]
Background and purpose: The evaluation of micellization parameters of surfactants that aggregate gradually, such as bile salts, is not trivial. In this work, different probes and data treatment models are tested to set up an analytical method based on ...

Micellization pattern of cationic surfactants in presence of azo dye in methanol mixed media
Conductivity measurements at three different temperatures (298.15, 308.15, and 318.15 K) were performed to determine the micellization nature of cationic surfactants, i.e., dodecyl trimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC), in ...
