Abstract
The traditional "spokes of a wheel" picture of micelles, published widely in modern organic chemistry and biochemistry texts, is best replaced with a more realistic model having a great deal more disorder.

An Evolutionary Approach to Nanoscience in the Undergraduate Chemistry Curriculum at James Madison University
Brian H. Augustine, Kevin L. Caran, Barbara A. Reisner2010 1010 (), 19-48An Evolutionary Approach to Nanoscience in the Undergraduate Chemistry Curriculum at James Madison University
Brian H. Augustine, Kevin L. Caran, Barbara A. Reisner2010 1010 (), 19-48We describe a model used for seeding nanoscience topics throughout the undergraduate chemistry curriculum at James Madison University (JMU). An overview of the evolutionary changes to the chemistry curriculum as a result of this program will be presented. ...

Daunomycin Binding to Detergent Micelles: A Model System for Evaluating the Hydrophobic Contribution to Drug−DNA Interactions
John David Dignam, Xiaogang Qu and Jinsong Ren, Jonathan B. ChairesThe Journal of Physical Chemistry B2007 111 (39), 11576-11584Daunomycin Binding to Detergent Micelles: A Model System for Evaluating the Hydrophobic Contribution to Drug−DNA Interactions
John David Dignam, Xiaogang Qu and Jinsong Ren, Jonathan B. ChairesThe Journal of Physical Chemistry B2007 111 (39), 11576-11584The interaction of daunomycin with sodium dodecyl sulfate and Triton X-100 micelles was investigated as a model for the hydrophobic contribution to the free energy of DNA intercalation reactions. Measurements of visible absorbance, fluorescence lifetime, ...

Colloidal Assemblies of Branched Geminis Studied by Cryo-etch-HRSEM
Fredric M. Menger, Victor A. Seredyuk, Robert P. Apkarian, and Elizabeth R. WrightJournal of the American Chemical Society2002 124 (42), 12408-12409Colloidal Assemblies of Branched Geminis Studied by Cryo-etch-HRSEM
Fredric M. Menger, Victor A. Seredyuk, Robert P. Apkarian, and Elizabeth R. WrightJournal of the American Chemical Society2002 124 (42), 12408-12409Cryo-etch-HRSEM is introduced as a useful method for exploring colloidal systems. The method fast freezes an aqueous sample (to 105 C in 67 ms), removes some or all of the surface water by sublimation (etching), and magnifies the resulting colloidal ...
