title: Magnetic field induced ordering of bile salt/phospholipid micelles: new media for NMR structural investigations.
abstract: Micelles formed from sodium glycocholate and dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine are demonstrated to form a magnetic field orientable liquid crystal within narrow ranges of composition and temperature. The utility of this medium in structural investigations of biological membrane components using deuterium NMR is discussed.
