Abstract
The micellization behavior of bile salts—sodium cholate and sodium deoxycholate was studied in aqueous methanol, ethanol and ethylene glycol mixtures (10–20 % v/v) over a temperature range (300–320 K) by surface tension and conductivity methods. Critical micelle concentration, extent of counter ion binding (α), interfacial property (A min, ζmax, π-CMC, \( \Updelta G_{\text{ad}}^{ \circ } \)) and thermodynamic parameters (\( \Updelta G_{\text{m}}^{ \circ } \), \( \Updelta H_{\text{m}}^{ \circ } \), \( \Updelta S_{\text{m}}^{ \circ } \)) for the micellization process are reported and discussed.
