Stomatosomes, blastula vesicles and bilayer disks: Morphological richness of …

Abstract. Cryogenic transmission electron microscopy (cryoTEM) was used to study the structures formed in mixtures of sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) and dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) in dilute aqueous solutions with 0–300 mM NaBr. The DTAB mole fraction, X, was in the range 0.2–0.4, limited at 25 ◦C by precipitation of solid DTA–DS at X = 0.38 without salt to X = 0.25 at 300 …
