Abstract Interaction of sulphone based reactive dyes, designated as dye-1 and dye-2, with cationic micellar system of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), has been investigated by spectroscopic and conductometeric measurements. Efficiency of the selected micellar systems is assessed by the values of binding constant (K b ), partition coefficient (K x ) and respective Gibbs energies. Critical micelle concentration (CMC) of surfactant, electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions as well as polarity of the medium plays significant role in this phenomenon. The negative values of Gibbs energies of binding (∆G b ) and partition (∆G p ) predicts the feasibility and spontaneity of respective processes. Similarly negative values of ∆G m and ∆H m and positive values of ∆S m , calculated from conductometeric data, further, revealed the exothermicity, spontaneity and, thus, stability of system. The results, herein, have disclosed the strong interaction between dye and surfactant molecules. The dye-2 has been observed to be solubilized to greater extent, as compared to dye 1, due to strong interaction ith hydrophiles of CTAB and accommodation of its molecules in palisade layer of micelle closer to the micelle/water interface.

The interaction of caldesmon with liposomes composed of various phospholipids has been examined by tryptophan fluorescence spectroscopy. The results indicate that caldesmon makes its strongest complex with phosphatidylserine (PS) vesicles (Kass. = 1.45 x 10(5) M-1). Both electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions contribute to the stability of this complex. The site for strong binding of PS seems to be located in the N-terminal part of the 34 kDa C-terminal fragment of caldesmon. Binding of PS at this site results in displacement of calmodulin from its complex with caldesmon.

The adsorption properties of sodium lignosulfonate (SL) on Al2O3 particles under different pH values have been investigated. Results show that at low pHs, SL adsorbs on the Al2O3 particles in the form of aggregate as dosage of SL increases; at high pHs, the adsorption is approximately monolayer coverage. With pH values ranging from 3 to 11, the adsorption results are found to be not significantly affected by the addition of urea, ruling out the hydrogen bond as the controlling factor. The paper demonstrates that the main driving force of adsorption is considered as the synergistic effect of electrostatic and hydrophobic interactions when pH pHIEP with additives of Na2SO4 and NaCl.
