Abstract The small-angle X-ray scattering of 1/10-size molecules (in 0.1 ionic strength Tris buffer pH 8.1) and 1/20-size molecules (in 0.1 ionic strength ethanolamine buffer pH 10.6) of α-hemocyanin of the snail Helix pomatia was studied. The radii of gyration, 8.7 nm and 8.0 nm for 1/10-size and 1/20-size molecules respectively, and the shape of the scattering curves indicate that both have a very anisotropic shape. Comparison of the experimental scattering curve of 1/10-size molecules with theoretical scattering curves gives the best agreement for flat cylinders or quadratic prisms the diameter respectively side of which is about 10 times larger than the height (dimensions side = 21 nm, height 2 nm). The scattering curves of various models composed of larger and smaller subunits were calculated; the best agree­ment was found also for flat models of similar dimensions.

The structures of micelles of the surfactant polysorbate 80 (Tween 80) in 0–50% aqueous dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) solutions (pH 7.2, ionic strength 2.44 mM) were investigated by means of small-angle X-ray scattering. At DMSO concentrations of 0–20%, core–shell cylinder micelles formed, and at 30–50% DMSO, core–shell discus micelles formed, that is, changing the hydrophobicity of the DMSO solvent mixture changed the micelles from core–shell cylinder micelles to core–shell discus micelles.

We have directly observed the <i>in situ</i> self-assembly kinetics of polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) micelles by synchrotron time-resolved small-angle X-ray scattering, equipped with a stopped-flow device that provides millisecond temporal resolution. This work has elucidated one general kinetic pathway for the process of PEC micelle formation, which provides useful physical insights for increasing our fundamental understanding of complexation and self-assembly dynamics driven by electrostatic interactions that occur on ultrafast timescales.
