title: In situ helicity inversion of self-assembled nano-helices.
abstract: The handedness of nanometrical helices based on surfactant assemblies was inverted when these helices were in contact with an excess solution of chiral anions with opposite enantiomers. An important difference in the kinetics of chirality inversion at the molecular level and mesoscopic level was observed.
