Interaction of fatty acid sodium salts with sodium deoxycholate.
Interaction of homologous fatty acids (C3-C18) with sodium deoxycholate was investigated. From NMR and ultrasonic results it was found that short chain homologues (up to C9) do not participate in the formation of mixed micelles with sodium deoxycholate. Fatty acid homologues with longer chains (starting with C9) form mixed micelles by "burying" hydrophobic chains in hydrophobic environment of a sodium deoxycholate micelle.
