Fluorescence correlation spectroscopy using octadecylrhodamine B as a specific micelle-binding fluorescence tag; Light scattering and tapping mode atomic force microscopy studies of amphiphilic water-soluble block copolymer micelles.

Abstract

Amphiphilic block copolymer micelles of polystyrene-block-poly(methacrylic acid) and polystyrene-block-poly(ethylene oxide) were investigated by fluorescence correlation spectroscopy in aqueous media.
