Conformation change induces agregation
Pluronic F127 are neutral tri-block copolymers forming micelles that are largely studied for drug delivery. We observed the structures and organization of the micelles in presence of a natural polyelectrolyte having important biological functions, the hyaluronic acid in semi-dilute regime, as a function of the nature and concentration of added salt by differential scanning calorimetry and small angle neutron scattering.
