Insertion of perfume molecules in pluronic micelles
The focus of this proposal is on the influence of model perfumes on the shape and size of nonionic micelles. Since the middle ages, essential oils have been widely used for bactericidal, fungicidal, antiparasitical, insecticidal, and other medicinal properties. Their nano-encapsulation in drug delivery systems has been proposed for their capability of decreasing volatility, improving the stability, water solubility, and efficiency of essential oil-based formulations. Pluronics meet a number of essential requirements for drug delivery. They are bio-compatible and have a low toxicity. We propose to perform a SANS experiment at different contrasts to understand how the position of the perfume molecules into the core-shell F127 micelles drives the change of shape and size of the micelle.
