A micelle (/ m aɪ ˈ s ɛ l /) or micella (/ m aɪ ˈ s ɛ l ə /) (pl. micelles or micellae, respectively) is an aggregate (or supramolecular assembly) of surfactant amphipathic lipid molecules dispersed in a liquid, forming a colloidal suspension (also known as associated colloidal system). [4] A typical micelle in water forms an aggregate ...
Elution ranges can be extended by several techniques including the use of organic modifiers, cyclodextrins, and mixed micelle systems. Short-chain alcohols or acetonitrile can be used as organic modifiers that decrease t M {\displaystyle t_{M}} and k 1 {\displaystyle k^{1}} to improve the resolution of analytes that co-elute with the micellar ...
Schematic of a micellar solution showing spherical micelles distributed in water (solvent) and having no long-range positional order. In colloid science, a micellar solution consists of a dispersion of micelles (small particles) in a solvent (most usually water).
Schematic diagram of a micelle – the lipophilic tails of the surfactant ions remain inside the oil because they interact more strongly with oil than with water. The polar "heads" of the surfactant molecules coating the micelle interact more strongly with water, so they form a hydrophilic outer layer that forms a barrier between micelles. This ...
The shape of a micelle is directly dependent on the packing parameter of the surfactant. Surfactants with a packing parameter of N S {\displaystyle N_{\text{S}}} ≤ 1/3 appear to have a cone-like shape which will pack together to form spherical micelles when in an aqueous environment (top in figure).

Alternative names for these systems are often used, such as transparent emulsion, swollen micelle, micellar solution, and solubilized oil. More confusingly still, the term microemulsion can refer to the single isotropic phase that is a mixture of oil, water and surfactant, or to one that is in equilibrium with coexisting predominantly oil and ...
Capillary electrophoresis (CE) is a family of electrokinetic separation methods performed in submillimeter diameter capillaries and in micro- and nanofluidic channels.Very often, CE refers to capillary zone electrophoresis (CZE), but other electrophoretic techniques including capillary gel electrophoresis (CGE), capillary isoelectric focusing (CIEF), capillary isotachophoresis and micellar ...
