Microemulsions of Biologically Active Compounds

Colloids: winning methods, description of termodynamic stable dispersion systems. Natural membranes modeling systems. Calorimetric and spectroscopic methods application in studies on systems containing natural compounds.

Colloids: winning methods, thermodynamic of stable dispersive systems (theoretical background). Structural parameters of micellar systems. Natural membranes modeling systems: micelles, reversed micelles, lipids bubbles, and lipids bilayer. Surfactants: types, structure, properties and solutions in polar and nonpolar solvents. Calorimetric technique application in microemlusions studies among other things the natural compounds solubility in the systems modeling biomembranes. Spectroscopic methods applications in studies on location privileged places of natural compounds and their transferring through the membranes
