The critical micelle concentration (cmc) of several lysophospholipids and of a lysophospholipid analogue was determined from surface tension measurements using the maximum bubble pressure method and/or 31P NMR. The use of the maximum bubble pressure method has now been extended

Articles

The critical micelle concentration (CMC) can be approximately defined as the lipid monomer concentration at which appreciable amounts (>5% of total) of micellar aggregates first begin to appear in the equilibrium: nM1<=>Mn
