Alkyl vitamin C derivatives (ASCn) combine in their structure a lipophilic and a hydrophilic
moiety and exhibit properties of typical surfactant molecules. Self-assembly properties of …

Hypothesis The structure, rheology and other physicochemical properties of dilute aqueous
dispersions of sodium oleate (NaOL) are well known. This paper is the first report in which a …

Abstract Although Agapanthus africanus (L.) Hoffm. is one of the most popular ornamental
species in both hemispheres, it has an extremely restricted wild occurrence (Cape province …

Experimental measurements of density ρ, speed of sound u, and viscosity η of aqueous
solutions of various 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium based ionic liquid (IL) solutions have been …

This work addresses the ascorbyl palmitate (Asc16) aqueous systems. It has been studied
through differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and polarizing microscopy (PM) at different …

Glyceline, a deep eutectic solvent comprising glycerol and choline chloride, is a green
nonaqueous solvent with potential industrial applications. Molecular mechanisms of …

In this investigation two vitamin C-based-6-O-ascorbic acid esters (ASC12 and ASC16), able
to form liquid–crystal structures (coagels) was evaluated for their potential usefulness to …

This book presents an experimental and computational account of the applications of
biopolymers in the field of medicine. Biopolymers are macromolecules produced by living …

Purpose: To evaluate the performance of 6-O-Lauryl–l-ascorbic acid nanostructures
(coagels) as vehicles for acetazolamide (AZM) in ophthalmic administration by in vitro and in …

Pure glycerol fatty acid esters and glycerylic cyclocarbonic fatty acid esters have an
amphiphilic structure, giving these biomolecules a broad range of physico-chemical and …
