The increasing need for drug delivery systems that improve specificity and activity and at the
same time reduce toxicity to ensure maximum treatment safety has led to the development of …

Self-assembly of chemically modified graphenes (CMGs), including graphene oxide (GO),
reduced graphene oxide (RGO) and their derivatives, has emerged as one of the most …

The use of templates in materials chemistry is a well-established approach for producing
membrane-bounded hollow spheres used for microencapsulation applications, but also in …

Self-assembled structures having a regular hollow icosahedral form (such as those
observed for proteins of virus capsids) can occur as a result of biomineralization processes …

Thylakoid membranes, the universal structure where photosynthesis takes place in all
oxygenic photosynthetic organisms from cyanobacteria to higher plants, have a unique lipid …

A novel pH-switchable wormlike micellar system was prepared by mixing N-
erucamidopropyl-N, N-dimethylamine and maleic acid with molar ratio of 2: 1. The viscosity …

The so-called 'catanionic'vesicles are made from mixtures of cationic and anionic
surfactants. They are attracting much interest because they form spontaneously and they …

A simple and effective route to design pH-responsive viscoelastic wormlike micelles based
on commercial compounds is reported. According to this route, pH-sensitive viscoelastic …

The stable self-assembled structures and the properties in cationic and anionic (catanionic)
