Surfactant-Mediated Solubilization of Myelin Figures: A Multistep Morphological Cascade [PDF]
Lamellar mesophases of insoluble lipids are readily solubilized by the micellar mesophases of soluble surfactants. This simple process underscores a broad array of biochemical methodologies, including purification, reconstitution, and crystallization of ...

Comparison of the α and β isomeric forms of the detergent n-dodecyl-D-maltoside for solubilizing photosynthetic complexes from pea thylakoid membranes [PDF]
Mild non-ionic detergents are indispensable in the isolation of intact integral membrane proteins and protein-complexes from biological membranes. Dodecylmaltoside (DM) belongs to this class of detergents being a glucoside-based surfactant with a bulky ...

Solubilization of fullerene C60 in micellar solutions of different solubilizers [PDF]
Fullerene (C(60)), the third carbon allotrope, is a classical engineered material with the potential application in biomedicine. However, extremely high hydrophobicity of fullerene hampers its direct biomedical evaluation and application. In this work, we investigated the solubilization of fullerene using 9 different solubility enhancers: Tween 20 ...

Nonionic Microemulsions as Solubilizers of Hydrophobic Drugs: Solubilization of Paclitaxel [PDF]
The strategy using nonionic microemulsion as a solubilizer for hydrophobic drugs was studied and is demonstrated in this work. The aqueous phase behaviors of mixed nonionic surfactants with various oils at 37 °C are firstly constructed to give the optimal formulations of nonionic microemulsions with applications in the enhanced solubilization of the ...
