The physico-chemical properties of dialkylamino and nitrogen heterocyclic analogues of hexadecylphosphocholine (HPC) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) were investigated. The surface properties, such as the critical micelle concentration (cmc), the surface tension value at the cmc (gamma(cmc)), and the surface area at the surface saturation per head group (A(cmc)) were determined by means of surface tension measurements. Micelle size was determined using the dynamic light scattering method. The influence of dialkylamino groups and heterocyclic ring size on surface-active properties was investigated. Surface activity and micellar size of prepared analogues of HPC and CTAB were mutually compared.

Lipopeptides (LPs) are widely sourced surface-active natural products with a wide range of functions and low toxicity, high potency, and good biodegradability. In this paper, we summarize, for the first time, the plant, animal, microbial, and synthetic sources of LPs. We also introduce the applications of LPs in food and human health, including (1) LPs can inhibit the growth of food microorganisms during production and preservation.

The nutritional characteristics of the tetrasaccharide stachyose prompted its incorporation into biosurfactants through esterification with fatty acid derivatives embodying 12-22 carbon chains. The resulting esters were evaluated for their surface active effects, emulsifying properties and capacities to form emulsions capable of the selective delivery of the anti-oxidant resveratrol. While such studies have revealed that those congeners embodying longer side-chains have higher critical micelle concentrations (CMC) and lower interfacial tensions, their hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) values fell within a tight range.

An interface can be delicately designed using interactions between nanoparticles and surfactants by controlling surface properties such as activity and charge equilibrium. This study seeks to provide insights into how surfactant concentration impacts the stability and dynamics of nanoparticle-surfactant interfaces, with potential applications in material science and interface engineering. This study investigates the interactions between Graphene Function (Gr, Graphene function in this text refers to functionalizing the graphene sheets with -COOH groups via acidic reactions.

Water-in-oil high internal phase emulsions (W/O-HIPEs) typically rely on large amounts of surfactants to disperse water droplets and usually use crystalline saturated triacylglycerides (TAGs) to enhance processing properties. However, these practices conflict with consumer demands for 'natural' ingredients. This study seeks to develop novel crystal fractions similar to saturated TAGs for the preparation of W/O-HIPEs as low-calorie fat mimetics, focusing on their mechanical and mouthfeel properties, which have received little attention thus far.

With the miniaturization, integration and intelligence of sweat electrochemical sensor technology, hydrogel flexible sensors have demonstrated immense potential in the field of real-time and non-invasive personal health monitoring. However, it remains a challenge to integrate excellent mechanical properties, self-healing properties, and electrochemical sensing capabilities into the preparation of hydrogel-based flexible sensors. The utilization of CBPG (cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs)@bovine serum albumin (BSA)@polyethyleneimine (PEI) glucose oxidase (GOD) nanomaterial) as both an enhancing phase and sensor probe within a hydrogel matrix, with poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) serving as the primary network constituent, has been proposed as a non-invasive technique for monitoring trace glucose levels in sweat.
