Microemulsion with ester in mixed surfactants and its association with betulinic acid

The phase behaviour of Tween 80IBrij 301H20 and Tween 80/Brij 30/glycerol was constructed to determine the isotropic region produced by the mixed surfactants (MS) - Tween 80:Brij 30 - in aqueous and nonaqueous systems. The weight ratios of 90: 10, 80:20 and 60:40 Tween 80:Brij 30 were selected for f...

The weight ratios of 90: 10, 80:20 and 60:40 Tween 80:Brij 30 were selected for further construction of MS systems of MA or EB/Tween 80:Brij 30lwater and MA or EB/Tween 80:Brij 30/glycerol.

The system of MA/Tween 80:Brij 30 (90: 10, 80:20 and 6O:40)lwater was then studied to determine the surfactants' aggregation and their association with BA.
