micelle

Micelle is a self-assembled object of amphiphilic surfactant molecules. Hydrophilic heads of surfactants are oriented towards the solvent while hydrophobic tails form the core.

Polymer micelles as drug carriers

Block copolymer micelles are composed of polymer chains with sequences of hydrophilic and hydrophobic blocks. In a dilute aqueous solution, they form spherical or cylindrical nano-objects comprised of...
