The proposed work describes the nanodrop spectrophotometric determination of cationic surfactants using citrate-modified silver nanoparticles based on the aggregation of silver nanoparticles induced by cationic surfactants due to the hydrophobic effect. The visible color change in the solution of silver nanoparticle includes a red shift with the quenching of the absorption spectra. The maximum ...

Nanocrystalline Zinc Oxide (ZnO) powders with different morphology have been successfully synthesized by using different surfactants such as Cetyl Trimethyl Ammonium Bromide (CTAB), Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate (SDS), and Tri Ethanol Amine (TEA) via hydrothermal method. The products were characterized by means of powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Transmission electr...

poly(styrene-co-butyl acrylate)/clay nanocomposites were synthesized via in situ atom transfer radical polymerization using activators generated by electron transfer in the presence of a montmorillonite ion-exchanged with mixed surfactants of dodecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide and vinyl trimethyl ammonium chloride. the living nature of polymerization is confrmed by occurrence of narrow molecula...

Binding studies of cationic detergents such as cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide, Cetyl pyridinium bromide and dodecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide with β Lactoglobulin were carried out by equilibrium dialysis, ultraviolet difference and circular dichroism techniques at 25 C. Binding isotherms at pH 5·0, 7·0 and 9·0 show cooperative binding at all concentrations of detergents and the number of avai...

Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) self assembles at hydrophobic graphite surfaces forming linear parallel hemicylinders with approximately 5 nm spacing between adjacent hemicylinders. In this paper, we report the effect of cosurfactants on the SDS surface micelle structures. It is known from the literature that cosurfactants influence the relaxation times of bulk phase micelles. Specifically, the re...

The thermodynamic parameters of interaction between calf thymus histone H A and dodecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (DTAB), a cationic surfactant, in aqueous solutions of pH 3.2, 6.4 and 10.0 were measured over a wide range of DTAB concentrations by equilibrium dialysis at 27°C and 37°C and are discussed. The data are used to determine the free energy from the Wyman binding potential theore...

The interaction of histone H2B and dodecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (DTAB) was studies via equilibrium dialysis method at two different temperatures, at pH 6.4 in phosphate buffer. The binding data were used to obtain the Gibbs free energy of interaction, which is interpreted in terms of a theoretical model based on the Wyman binding potential. The data were then used to obtain...

Femtosecond fluorescence upconversion experiments were performed on the naturally occurring medicinal pigment, curcumin, in anionic, cationic, and neutral micelles. In our studies, the micelles are composed of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), dodecyl trimethyl ammonium bromide (DTAB), and triton X-100 (TX-100). We demonstrate that the excited-state kinetics of curcumin in micelles have a fast (3-8...
