Methylene Blue, Reversed Micelles, Water Content, Solubilization The solubilization of methylene blue in dodecylammonium propionate reversed micelles in cyclohexane depended strongly on the solubilized water content. Methylene blue solubilized in the micelle of which head groups are not completely hydrated by bound water exhibited the new absorption bands at 495 and 270 nm, but these bands did ...

The influence of various concentrations of 15 detergents at different temperatures on the fluidity of membranes was analysed by fluorescence anisotropy of inserted 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5hexatriene in rat cortical and Sf9 cell membranes. Comparison of the obtained data with the abilities of the detergents to solubilize muscarinic receptor subtypes indicated that not only the fluidity of the micelles...

Bringing active pharmaceutical or agrochemical ingredients (APIs) in solution often is the most demanding step in pharmaceutical and agrochemical development. The COSMO-RS method, which has been originally developed by the author during his 12 years at Bayer, is a unique combination of quantum chemical information and liquid phase thermodynamics and currently is proven to be the most accurate m...
