Interaction between polyelectrolyte and surfactant of opposite charge: hydrodynamic effects in the sodium hyaluronate/tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide/sodium chloride/water system

Static and Dynamic Light Scattering of Polyelectrolyte/Surfactant Solutions: the Na‐Hyaluronate/(C10TAB) System

“…NMR, [9,10] surface tension, [11] viscosity, [12][13][14][15] potentiometry, [16] small-angle neutron scattering (SANS), [17][18][19] static and dynamic light scattering. [20][21][22][23][24] These complex systems include uncharged polymers and neutral or ionic surfactants as well as charged polymers (polyelectrolytes) and surfactants of opposite charges or neutral.…”

Aggregation Properties of Sodium Hyaluronate with Alkanediyl-α,ω-bis(dimethylalkylammonium Bromide) Surfactants in Aqueous Sodium Chloride Solution

“…The hyaluronate coil shrinkage is governed by the electrolyte concentration (22,23) by shielding of repulsive interactions of negatively charged sites on NaHA chains. The role of positive Na + ions on NaHA coil size is effectively replaced by the positively charged free dimeric micelles that are possibly present in the solution above surfactant cmc.…”

“…Works discussing the bulk interactions focus on neutral, uncharged polymer-surfactant interactions (14)(15)(16)(17) and on charged polymer-conventional ionic surfactant interactions as well. Interactions between positively charged polymer and anionic surfactant (18)(19)(20)(21) as well as between polyanion and cationic surfactant (22,23) were studied. It was found that ionic polymer-ionic surfactant systems are sensitive to precipitation depending on the concentration of added electrolyte (18,19,22).…”

“…Interactions between positively charged polymer and anionic surfactant (18)(19)(20)(21) as well as between polyanion and cationic surfactant (22,23) were studied. It was found that ionic polymer-ionic surfactant systems are sensitive to precipitation depending on the concentration of added electrolyte (18,19,22). The process is reversible and can be recovered from the precipitation state to the single phase state by changing the electrolyte concentration.…”

The change in excited-state proton transfer kinetics of 1-naphthol in micelles upon the binding of polymers: The influence of hyaluronan hydration

“…The hydration or water-retention capacity is probably one of the most important aspects of the biological functions of hyaluronan (Kučerík et al, 2011). Hyaluronan-cationic surfactant interactions have been described in many previous papers (Bjoerling, Hersloef-Bjoerling, & Stilbs, 1995;Halasová, Krouská, Mravec, & Pekař, 2011;Hersloef, Sundeloef, & Edsman, 1992;Thalberg & Lindman, 1989;Thalberg, Lindman, & Karlstroem, 1990) but, to date, no reports about the influence of hyaluronan hydration in hyaluronan-surfactant interaction have been reported. It is known that polyelectrolytes, such as polystyrenesulfonate or hyaluronan, form so-called "pearl necklace" aggregates (Bjoerling et al, 1995) with surfactants due to the induced aggregation of surfactant molecules on polymer chain above certain surfactant and polymer concentrations.…”
