Microemulsions are clear, stable, isotropic mixtures of oil, water and surfactant, frequently in
combination with a cosurfactant. These systems are currently of interest to the …

Microemulsions are clear, stable, isotropic mixtures of oil, water, and surfactant, frequently in
combination with a cosurfactant. Microemulsions have been intensively studied during the …

Presenting breakthrough research pertinent to scientists in a wide range of disciplines-from
medicine and biotechnology to cosmetics and pharmacy-this Second Edition provides …

Recent advances in nanotechnology have led to the development of nano-scale drugs and
delivery systems to improve drug therapeutic effectiveness. Between the end of′ 50 and the …

2. BACKGROUND 2.1. Aqueous Reverse Micelles The unique properties of water including
its polarity and highly structured hydrogen bond network have led to the widespread use of …

Microemulsions are clear, transparent, thermodynamically stable dispersions of oil and
water, stabilised by an interfacial film of surfactant frequently in combination with a co …

Lecithin self-assembles in nonaqueous media into reversed giant cylindrical micelles when
small amounts of water, glycerol or formamide are added. The micellar aggregates, much …

We report a new route for forming reverse wormlike micelles (ie, long, flexible micellar
chains) in nonpolar organic liquids such as cyclohexane and n-decane. This route involves …

The major problem in oral drug formulations is low and erratic bioavailability, which mainly
results from poor aqueous solubility. This may lead to high inter-and intra subject variability …

The isothermal quasi-ternary-phase diagram of the lecithin− cyclohexane− water system
was determined at 25° C using a combination of polarizing microscopy, small-angle X-ray …
