Micelle Enhanced Analytical Chemistry
… The presence of these anionic micellar systems enhanced the Stern-Volmer quenching constant, K<sub>SV</sub>, relative to that observed in water alone (by a factor of ca. 80 for SDS as the micelle and NMA as fluorescent probe). The SDS micelle system appeared to be best in terms of the …
