Original Abstract

This paper deals with electrostatic association of cationic micelles (CTAB or Septonex) with hyaluronan. The cationic micelle/hyaluronan complexes were studied using turbidimetry and fluorescence spectroscopy method. Effect of components concentration and molecular weight of hyaluronan were evaluated. Results of turbidimetry revealed that aggregates formation (turbidity increasing) depends especially on a charge ratio of surfactant molecules and hyaluronan carboxyl groups. It was found a difference in association of low molecular weight and high molecular weight of hyaluronan. Fluorescence results confirmed presence and stability of micellar aggregates in studied systems.
