title: A temperature study on critical micellization concentration of the novel platelet-activating factor receptor antagonist E5880 in water by electric conductivity measurements.
abstract: To clarify the behavior of the novel platelet-activating factor (PAF) receptor antagonist E5880 in aqueous solution, electric conductivity was measured at different temperatures (every 5 degrees C), ranging from 15 degrees C to 50 degrees C. Critical micellization concentration (CMC) of E5880 was dependent on the temperature; at 30 degrees C, the CMC value was smallest (0.143 mM). Below that temperature, the enthalpy for formation of the micelle (delta Hm0) was positive, and the formation of micelles was endothermic; above that temperature, delta Hm0 was negative, and the formation of micelles was exothermic.
